“We demand more involvement from the police”: the News Council of À Punt denounces threats and insults from fascist groups

The News Council of À Punt has denounced the misogynist threats and insults received by its teams during the coverage of an extreme-right rally against President Pedro Sánchez. The body has condemned the events and called for more police involvement to protect journalists. The attackers recorded and spread the images with the intention of intensifying the attacks. The Council has also suggested reflecting on the advisability of covering certain calls from these groups, as it believes that, in some cases, media coverage gives them a voice.
