Ivory Coast : Battle for the Control of News
Reporters Without Borders is extremely concerned about the consequences for journalists of the fight for control of state television and the media in general being waged by the supporters of Laurent Gbagbo and the ones of Alassane Ouattara.
“We are very worried about the situation in Côte d’Ivoire,” Reporters Without Borders said. “The violent dispersal of yesterday’s demonstration unfortunately caused casualties and we hope that any resumption of hostilities does not target journalists.”
