False Report of S. Korean Conservative Media Comes under Fire
Pyongyang, June 25 (KCNA) -- The "Measure Council of Religious, Civic and Public Organizations to Cope with Misinformation by Dong-A Ilbo on Late Spring Mun Ik Hwan School" held a press conference in Seoul on June 22 in which it vowed to strongly counter the action of the conservative paper.

A press release was read out at the conference.

It noted that the conservative paper released a false report on the school, doing harm even to children.

It branded the action as a trick to turn the situation favorable for the "presidential" election by carrying out the coloring operation.

Unpardonable is the conservative forces and media's action to tarnish the image of the school whose the contents of education are to realize the peaceful reunification true to the intention of Rev. Mun Ik Hwan, it noted.

The paper must be forced to pay for its action, it warned.

The press release urged the paper to immediately apologize for making the false report that left bruise on the minds of the children and make a correction report.

It also expressed the determination of civic and social bodies that consist of people from all walks of life to launch a vigorous movement to defend the school from such actions of conservative media.
