Algiers, Algeria | September 23rd, 2024 — The Ministry of Communication has successfully mediated a dispute between Maamar Gani, the CEO of Dzair Tube, and Charaf-Eddine Amara, resolving a conflict that had been simmering over the past few weeks, according to a statement released by the media outlet. The issue began when Amara published a post that was deemed offensive toward Gani, which resulted in a public exchange that could have escalated further if not for the Ministry’s timely intervention.
On September 22, 2024, the Ministry extended an invitation to Maamar Gani for a constructive and amicable discussion aimed at addressing the issue with Amara. Gani, showing great professionalism and willingness to find a peaceful solution, accepted the Ministry’s invitation without hesitation. This cooperative spirit reflected his dedication not only to his organization but also to the principles of journalistic integrity and media ethics.
During the meeting, it became apparent that Amara had taken issue with the tone of Gani’s response to the initial provocations. However, rather than allow the matter to escalate into a public feud, Gani expressed his openness to resolving the conflict through dialogue, underscoring his commitment to protecting the reputation of his media outlet and his journalists.
The Ministry of Communication, recognizing the importance of de-escalating the situation, noted that had Dzair Tube approached them earlier, the dispute could have been resolved before it intensified. Their role in the resolution of the conflict highlights their proactive approach in supporting media entities, particularly digital platforms like Dzair Tube, which play an increasingly pivotal role in shaping the modern media landscape in Algeria.
As part of the resolution, both Gani and Amara agreed to delete the posts that contributed to the tension. Notably, Amara complied with the Ministry’s request to remove his offensive post, a move that Dzair Tube viewed as a victory for its CEO and a testament to the importance of maintaining respect and professionalism in media discourse. The media outlet emphasized that it stood firmly against any form of insult or abuse toward its journalists, no matter the source, and that such behavior would not be tolerated.
In its statement following the meeting, Dzair Tube expressed deep gratitude to the Ministry of Communication for its unwavering support. The organization praised the Ministry for its open-door policy, which provides a platform for media outlets to voice their concerns and seek solutions to the challenges they face. Gani, in particular, lauded the Ministry’s role in protecting the rights of journalists, emphasizing that this successful resolution demonstrates the importance of working closely with government entities to safeguard the interests of the press.
Furthermore, Dzair Tube called on the Ministry to publicly reaffirm its role in mediating the conflict and its intervention in ensuring that Amara withdrew his defamatory post. Such a statement, the media outlet argued, would further solidify the Ministry’s position as a guardian of journalistic integrity and an arbiter in disputes that may undermine the credibility of the media.
