The leader of the Democratic Party, Sali Berisha, in a statement during a meeting with the parliamentary group, informed television stations and broadcasts that they will not go if they do not have their opponent in front of them, but rather paid analysts.
Berisha has leveled accusations, saying that Prime Minister Edi Rama has a censorship strategy and the opposition cannot become a party to this and confront Rilindza analysts on shows, referring to one of them, analyst Lorenc Vangjeli.
"Finally, I will be open with all of you, it's good that the media is here. Now, what has happened and what is happening? This one orders the media to focus everything on the opposition so that the entire discourse in Albanian society becomes about the opposition, that a pimple has appeared here, that a problem has appeared there, that this has appeared, that has appeared, and not about the major problems of Albanian citizens, in order to erase them.
I have a lot of respect and I guarantee that we will always remain open, but never again in the function of this strategy.
Dear TV show moderators, you want our representatives, you want to choose them yourself, I completely agree. With the only condition, that they will be there when you bring your opponents to face them.
But they being there bringing Lorenca to you, that doesn't happen. Bringing Balla, that doesn't happen.
Why? Because this is a censorship platform. Did you see what these AMA Siamese twins came up with? They came up with the idea that Sali Berisha had taken over 90 percent of the media in August.
That in August, Edi Rama hosted lunches and dinners, traveled by personal charter.
But where did they put them? They didn't put them on the news, because 90 percent of the news is Edi Rama and the government. Look at what a deception. So, not only do they commit the crime of imposing censorship, but they also deceive.
But when I saw the AMA Siamese sisters who had done that shameful study. Statistical fraud. So dear friends, we are completely open to debates in television studios, for the only reason, to bring the opponent.
We don't have time to deal with government lawyers who are obligated to deceive and irresponsibly fabricate everything in the studio.
Because you have a very big flaw, you don't do fact checking. You go there, he comes out in front of you, declares 10 untrue things and you go find them. A serious television station right back does a fact check and says that these are lies.
This is the most terrible effect of censorship, says Hannah Arendt, when it leads one to the great question of what to believe. Where to believe. This is the greatest success of those who exercise censorship.
"Yes, they invite you for an interview one by one, as you wish. But, let's serve the platform of censorship, the platform that the fraud that comes out of the offices of Endri Fuga, who has been running away since it was caught that Albanian taxpayers' money was being spent in his restaurant, can no longer happen," Berisha declared./ CNA
