The Macedonian Journalist Association expressed its concerns about the decision of the authorities to freeze the bank accounts of “Telma tv”, in the framework of an investigation for embezzlement against corporate executives of the “Makpetrol” company, owner of the tv. According to the Association, this measure puts at risk the existence of the media, and threatens to leave many journalists jobless, thus impoverishing the already fragile media environment in Macedonia.
