The leader of the Democratic Party, Sali Berisha, has accused some media outlets of devoting more television time to the SP than to the Democratic Party. During a press conference, Berisha stated that four or three media outlets have devoted a combined 15 hours to the SP in 30 days, while the opposition has only 4 hours.
The Democratic leader described this as an extreme inequality, while accusing Prime Minister Rama of controlling the media. According to him, they should allocate equal time to the ruling party and the opposition.
Sali Berisha: What is the truth? Again, we, the press office, have monitored the four national televisions, which are mammoths, oligarchs, are in one way or another the main censors and executioners of free speech. These four national media, the state television, Top Channel, Klan and Vizion Plus have dedicated to Edi Rama and the Socialist Party in 30 days taken together 15 hours, 10 minutes and 59 seconds. So, 15 hours compared to only 4 hours, 46 minutes and 43 seconds or 23.9 percent to the opposition. According to the universal law, par condicio, of every democratic country, these media should allocate equal time to the position and the opposition.
But Edi Rama, among other things, also counts the news that the media provide non-stop about the 71-day protest, he counts it as time for the DP.
The truth is that there are certain days in which the DP, from these media, was given 1 minute and 30 seconds, while for the SP, and this is the date 26 June, the SP was given 48 minutes and 45 seconds, so a ratio of 32.5 to 1. This is the extreme inequality that is dictated by the government over the media controlled by it. And the two Siamese twins in deception in the AMA serve Rama and the public as a true indicator, the indicator that more than anything else speaks of the rampant attacks that are made every day by the government's puppets against the opposition and its leaders.
