Ecuador
Establishes Ethic Committee to
Regulate News Media
Quito - The Ecuadorian
government will establish an ethic committee
to regulate the country's news media, a
government official said on Tuesday.
Secretary General of Communications Fernando
Alvarado said it is necessary to create the
committee to regulate the news media because
"some media have taken a political
position."
Alvarado also proposed creating a news
agency that does not represent the
government or private interests in order to
report with maximum objectivity.
Alvarado's comments came one day after
Ecuadorian President Rafael Correa announced
the cancellation of the licenses of some
radio and TV stations due to what he called
irregularities.
