LSM Editor-in-Chief: Error Has Been Corrected, but Tying the Media's Hands Over It Would Be Disproportionate
The editor-in-chief of Latvian Public Media says the error has been corrected and that restricting the media's work because of it would be disproportionate. On the morning of 20 October, LSM newsrooms also spent three and a half hours drafting scenarios for producing news during major crises.
The editor-in-chief of Latvian Public Media (LSM) has said that an error has been corrected, but that it would be disproportionate to tie the media's hands because of it. Her opinion piece appeared in the "Skatpunkts" (Viewpoint) section of LSM.lv. The available excerpt does not say what the error was.
Describing her work, the editor writes that on the morning of 20 October she spent three and a half hours with news staff from all LSM platforms. They included representatives of Latvian Television, Latvian Radio and the LSM.lv portal, as well as the heads and editors of the regional studios.
At the meeting, they developed scenarios for combining forces during major crises, so that news and programmes can be produced in a coordinated way. The excerpt gives no further detail on the scenarios or next steps.
