The task force said: “After MBN first released the power bailout subtitles based on the above announcement without any verification, each media company mass-produced misinformation about the power structure by citing reports from others. Gyeonggi Bureau of Education media companies and messages citing media reports. ”

If you take a summary of the circumstances, it has been 7 to 26 minutes from the erroneous report to the correction report “. It is difficult to admit the intentional dissemination of false information or obstruction of rescue work, as it is difficult to see that the suspects knew that the power structure was false, even if it was subject to sanctions by the Korea Communications Standards Commission. and that journalists may be subject to disciplinary action. “Revealed.
