She says that despite threats, blackmail and even physical attacks journalists do their job by addressing all the problems of citizens.

“Threats, blackmail, and even physical attacks have become a reminder of their work. Despite various challenges, however, journalists make it possible to live the fundamental values of freedom of expression. Thanks to their civic sense and their courage to criticize, they become the most articulating voice of the problems of the country's citizens today”.

It has criticised the ruling party for its access to the media, saying that because of its inability to rule, it is carrying the problem to the media.

The LDK official says that the media for Vetevendosje are confrontation with the reality that, according to her, is hard to accept.

Until, unfortunately, the attack on media has turned into a mode of communication from political power. Practice this, known, when a government demonstrates disability, always carries the problem to the media. In democratic media societies are a mirror of good governance, but for the ruling party, it is the true confrontation of bitter reality, which is hard to accept. The ruling parties come and go, but the media remain guardian of the values of democracy”, it wrote on Facebook.

Yesterday during the Parliament's session, Vetevendosje MP Pacolli made a scandalous statement, calling from Parliament and Government to take measures against the media in Kosovo.
