Media Syndicate charter of honor to be finalized in a month

CAIRO – 29 May 2017: The media charter of honor that regulates the upcoming Media Syndicate will be finalized within a month, said Mahgoub Seada a member of the committee concerned with establishing the Media Syndicate.

In accordance with the media charter of honor, the upcoming Media Syndicate would be able to hold investigations with media men who violate regulations.

These violations are being spotted in a number of satellite channels’ programs which are dealing with improper content, and that happened because people working in the media field violate standards and they are unprofessional, he added.

The Media Syndicate is currently incapable of holding violators working in the media accountable as the committee has not yet finalized the charter, Seada said.

He clarified that once the committee finalizes its work on the regulations of the Media Syndicate, it would be easy to refer any media violator to investigations.
