Rula Koromila wondered if the way reporting should be done had changed. She said she believed that a journalist should verify the opinions of both sides and not uncritically adopt what one side was saying, while questioning whether, in the absence of the other side, it was gossip and not reporting. #δημοσιογραφία #ρεπορτάζ #εξέλιξη (translated)

Karditsastakra praised journalist Christos Avramidis, saying that he explained in detail how Greeks were paying very dearly for American LNG, while they could be obtaining much cheaper Russian gas. He argued that this served the interests of businessmen who had signed contracts with the USA and linked it to the continuation of the European Union's sanctions against Russia. He also questioned whether those who, in his description, were ruthless truly cared about Ukraine. #Ελλάδα #Ευρώπη #Ενέργεια (translated)

The article states that, after the massacres on Chios in 1822, women and children were transported as captives to the slave markets of Smyrna and Constantinople. It invoked a letter sent that spring from Constantinople by Dutch diplomat Gaspar Testa, in which he described captured children and women from Chios, some of whom had papers with the name and address of their owners. According to the post, by May 1, 1822, more than 41,000 slave ownership documents, known as "teskeredes," had been issued. The article mentioned that, according to the French-language newspaper of Smyrna, Spectateur Oriental, by May 10, customs duties for about 40,000 slaves had been paid at the city's customs. It also cited English sources, stating that the population of Chios before the destruction was approximately 110,000: about 20,000 fled or remained on the island to cultivate mastic, approximately 45,000 were killed, and the rest were sold as slaves. The post stated that the attack began on March 30, 1822, and that, according to the orders attributed to the Sultan, boys aged 3–12 and women aged 12–40 would be captured, while the others would be slaughtered. It described rapes, torture, and murders of civilians, as well as women who committed suicide or resisted to avoid capture. Citing the account of the priest Welsh from the English embassy in Constantinople, the article noted that about 500 women from Chios were sold in the fish market and that their prices ranged from 100 groats to 3 pounds per person. It added that similar scenes unfolded in Smyrna, where women and children were transported in chains and sent to the homes of those who had bought them. Finally, it cited Chian journalist Panagiotis Xenakis and "The Machine of Time," mentioning that the island remained devastated for years after 1822. #Χίος #ΕλληνικήΕπανάσταση #Σκλαβιά (translated)

Adonis Georgiadis described Stamatis Zacharou as a decent person and an excellent journalist, noting that he was not left-wing. He argued that if a left-wing journalist had been dismissed in the same way, there would have been great upheaval. He added that the choice to be close to the Left came at a cost, which, according to him, made it more respectable. #μετονΣταμάτηΖαχαρό #Αριστερά #δημοσιογραφία #σεβασμός (translated)

Kiou told Nikos Tzouannis that, in his opinion, the term "fan-journalist" had been coined in Greece as a means of survival for journalists. He added that this had led to voyeuristic journalism and to the point where even likes on social media were being monitored. #δημοσιογραφία #Ελλάδα #κινήσεις (translated)

Jack asked the Betarades if Mr. Stefanou participated in the show as a journalist or as a press representative of Olympiacos BC. He wrote that his evident anxiety, the timing of his interventions related to the game, and the verbatim transfer of the BC's positions to the detriment of the game he was supposed to be commenting on made watching the show so awkward that, according to him, it ended up being ridiculous. #paobc #μπάσκετ #Ολυμπιακός #δημοσιογραφία (translated)

Amalia wrote that Major Panagiotis Stoupas, originally from Lefki Messinia, had participated in the Asia Minor Campaign and in the Greco-Italian War. According to her post, during the Occupation, he created a resistance group in mountainous Trifylia and later joined the national resistance organization "Greek Army" (ES). Amalia mentioned that, following attacks by ELAS and with the intervention of British Major Harrington, the leaders of the ES signed on August 29, 1943, the Dyrrachium Pact, which stipulated the dissolution of the organization and the integration of its members into ELAS. She argued that those who had joined national resistance organizations were at risk, if captured by ELAS, of being forced to join them or be killed. According to her, Stoupas disagreed with the agreement and returned to Lefki. On October 10, 1943, strong ELAS forces surrounded the village, burned his house, and believed he had died, but he had escaped. Amalia wrote that later Stoupas joined the Security Battalions, as, in her estimation, thousands of other Greeks did. The post stated that Colonel Dionysios Papadogkonas, Stoupas's former commander, appointed him commander of the Security Battalion of Meligalas in March 1944. Amalia noted that after the ELAS attack on Meligalas, Stoupas moved to Gargalianoi with 100 men and was not in the city during the days of the massacre. After the collapse of the defense in Gargalianoi, he and his men retreated to Pylos. According to Amalia, when ELAS surrounded Pylos on September 24, local authorities sought a surrender agreement, while ELAS promised that there would be no massacres. She wrote that Stoupas accepted the agreement and committed suicide with his pistol at the castle gate, after saying goodbye to his men. She also cited the post-war testimony of Chris Woodhouse, who, she reported, conveyed words from British journalist Richard Capell in favor of choosing the Security Battalions instead of ELAS. #ιστορία #Ελλάδα #πατριωτισμός (translated)

The Scrooge of Kifisia wrote that this particular man taught at a Greek university and attributed to him the view that the Greek nation had existed for 200 years, that the concept of the nation was outdated, and that nations were social constructs. He connected these views with the education of PASOK and mentioned that they had provoked the strong reaction of a patriotic journalist. https://t.co/iP8Fakc1vv #Ελλάδα #Παιδεία #Πατριωτισμός (translated)

e-tetRadio.gr reported that Erietta Molcho was the girl for whom the journalist Stamatis Zacharos questioned both her death and, as he wrote, her existence. It added that her parents had received nothing back and that Zacharos had made jokes about them. https://t.co/w7gA0lWvxk #ΕριέτταΜόλχο #νόμος #δημοσιογραφία (translated)

Chris Avramidis published a text attributed to Giannis Androulidakis, who criticized journalist Stamatios Zacharos for questioning whether Eriet Molcho was on the train in Tempi or if she ever existed. Androulidakis argued that in the future there may be factions of the Greek Right that will claim there were no deaths in Tempi. He stated that he had attended Molcho's funeral and had seen her classmates crying, which he wrote was evidence for him that she existed and died. He added that journalism must hold power accountable. Androulidakis claimed, citing data from GEMI and the General Secretariat for Information, that Zacharos was collaborating with the government as a businessman and shareholder of The Cube. According to him, the company had sextupled its turnover in the last four years by providing services for conferences under the auspices of the government. He also mentioned direct assignments totaling 160,000 euros, in which, he wrote, he was included. Finally, he wondered if ESIEA should expel Zacharos from its registers, stating that questioning Molcho's existence was considered by some extremists to be an insult to the dead. #Τεμπη #δημοσιογραφία #Ελλάδα #έλεγχος_εξουσίας (translated)

Manolis Grigorakis wrote that Zacharos brought to the forefront an issue that, as he said, society seemed to overlook or forget, and that he deserved recognition for it. He concluded with an insulting remark about the journalist. #Δημοσιογραφία #Κοινωνία #Σκωπτικότητα (translated)

Nikos Boyiopoulos criticized journalist Zacharos for a comment he made on his show on the ONE television station regarding Erietta Molcho, who, as he stated, had been missing after the train collision in Tempi. According to Boyiopoulos, lawyer Th. Staikos, who represented the Voulgaris family in the trial for Tempi, noted on the show that Molcho had not been located. Zacharos, as Boyiopoulos wrote, questioned whether she was on the train and linked the mention of the missing persons to previous claims that there were no deaths during the Polytechnic uprising. Boyiopoulos stated that the 23-year-old Molcho was on the passenger train that collided with a freight train on the night of February 28, 2023, and that no trace of her had been found on the train. He added that her parents had attended the court in Larissa last April and had filed a motion to support the charges in the pre-trial proceedings. As he noted, after the reactions, Zacharos apologized, describing his wording as incorrect. He claimed that his intention was to offer ironic criticism of those adopting theories surrounding Tempi and had apologized to Molcho's family and the relatives of the victims. Boyiopoulos concluded his post by addressing him with a heavy insult. #Τεμπη #Πολυτεχνείο #δημοσιογραφία (translated)

Venice made a series of statements about the tragedy of the Tempi, attributing them to political figures, executives, and journalists. According to her post, Karamanlis had stated that he ensured safety, while Florinis had insulted those who spoke about "filling in." Triantopoulos, as she wrote, had used dehumanizing language regarding the victims, while a voter of Mitsotakis had used a vulgar term for the train in a discussion on Space with AML and Portosalte. Venice noted that Mitsotakis had said he did not know and was not obliged to know about the issue, had attributed the drama mainly to a tragic human error, and had characterized the best justification for the sacrifice of the children as ensuring that something similar would not happen again. Romanos had said that they found themselves expressing condolences, while Giogakos had stated that, for better or worse, people were dead. Government officials and civil protection executives had invoked the obligation to clean the area, while Kyriakos had rejected the term "filling in" and had spoken of rehabilitation. According to the same post, Georgiadis had argued that no one in society was interested in the investigation for Tempi and, in another statement, that Greeks were not interested in either the investigation or the pre-investigation. Analysts and executives, in discussions after the national elections of May and June 2023, had estimated that the political cost from Tempi was negligible. Voultepsi had described the issue as stale, Markopoulos had referred to the "cursed" committee and had said he was having fun, while Tamilos had stated that not all Trikala would cry. Venice also attributed to Voridis the position that the accident would have happened even if there had been remote control, as well as the assessment that it was a minor issue compared to what was happening on the planet. Mitsotakis had said that everyone was to blame, while Voridis had argued that names should not be recorded in the Constitution because not all places were the same. Finally, journalist Zacharos of New Democracy had raised the possibility that Eritheta was not on the train and had referred to earlier reports of missing persons at the Polytechnic, which, as he said, did not exist. #Τεμπη #Τέμπη #ασφάλεια #Ελλάδα (translated)
