    AFTER HRANT DINK'S MURDER, TURKISH MASS MEDIA AGAIN STRIKES ONE'S
    EYE WITH FALSE INFORMATION, YERVAND AZATIAN BELIEVES

    YEREVAN, JANUARY 26, NOYAN TAPAN. After "Akos" newspaper editor
    Hrant Dink's murder, too sensitive articles appeared in both Armenian
    and Turkish press, and it is natural. Yervand Azatian, an American
    Armenian writer, publicist, a member of the Ramkavar-Azatakan (Liberal
    Democratic) party, "Azg" (nation) newspaper founder, at present
    - shareholder expressed such an opinion at the January 26 press
    conference. But, in his words, Turkish mass media use during these
    years the PR technologies more frequently what is mainly expressed by
    spreading not correct information. In Y.Azatian's opinion, a bright
    example of false information is the information published by the
    Turkish mass media as if Armenian extremist organizations are behind
    H.Dink's murder.

    In Y.Azatian's words, the international press does not unequivocally
    cover H.Dink's murder, either. For example, though CNN in general
    touched upon H.Dink's murder, only a small part of materials covering
    that crime was shown in the U.S.

    Touching upon the activity of the Liberal Democratic Party, he
    mentioned that people representing that political force in Armenia are
    not "ideologically mellow." In Y.Azatian's words, the party named LDPA
    does not correspond by its actions way to the party with the same name
    acting abroad. "Responding the question "What organization does LDPA
    head Haroutiun Arakelian represent in that case?" Y.Azatian answered:
    "I do not know."
