Burjanadze the Hammer!

In an open letter to the Georgian government and people, former Parliamentary speaker and twice interim president, Nino Burjanadze, has brought down the hammer.

Here she is on the freedom of media crisis (full article here):

"The situation, in which the Georgian TV stations are today, is unacceptable for the Georgian society; such situation indicates that the authorities are politically incapable and are scared of the truth. It is a shame that we have to speak about freedom of media on the fifth anniversary of the Rose Revolution and by that you have betrayed the hundreds of thousands of people, who stood beside you in November [2003] to protect that very same value.

Control of media outlets should be over unconditionally!

It needs a concrete decision rather than your words!"
