“Menq” youth movement organized a march in Yerevan streets with “No brain washing”, “No H1”, “Do not believe in H1” posters. They were holding a TV set, with the flags of 7 TV channels and with the logo of H1 and a big red cross on the screen of the TV set.
The young people were annoyed by the distorted news broadcasted by all TV channels on the gathering organized by Levon Ter-Petrosyan in Artashat. “That is why we have decided to protect our rights. We demand and urge the TV channels to provide information coming out their consciences and present the reality and not to obey to the authorities’ pressures”, said Arthur Minasyan, representative of “Menq” movement initiative.
According to the organizers of the action, all TV channels broadcast the news based on the mutual agreement with H1. During the action, the participants also disseminated Ter-Petrosyan’s leaflets with “We will win”, “Let’s clean the stables from bandits”, “We will taste the fruits of victory together on 19 February” slogans.
The participants of the march stopped in the Liberty Square, where they broke the TV set in the eyes of passers-by. This action symbolized distorted information, which did not promote the establishment of civil society and the constitutional order.
