Claims do not have any merit - Fiji TV

Fiji Television Limited has today acknowledged the government’s position on the need for balanced and fair reporting of news by all media organizations including Fiji TV.

Chairman Isoa Kaloumaira said Fiji TV will ensure that it will improve its news reporting and implement measures to overcome any practices contrary to the spirit and substance of the Media Code of Ethics and Practice, as provided in the Media Decree.

Kaloumaira confirmed that he met with the Attorney General Aiyaz Sayed-Khaiyum on the 25th of last month to discuss various issues of concern with respect to news reporting by Fiji TV.

However, Kaloumaira said initial reports that have come out regarding Fiji TV in the international media and the politicization of the issue by the political parties, does not have any merit.

He said none of these allegations have been verified by him nor the board of Fiji TV.
