[NEWS] KBS's "Entertainment Relay" receives warning for reporting about Daesung's settlement! (120608)

Tweet

KBS 2TV's "Entertainment Relay" received a warning from the Korean Commmunications Stardards Commission (KCSC).

KCSC announced the warning towards "Entertainment Relay" on the 7th as a result of their meeting.

According to the KCSC, "Entertainment Relay" had broadcasted a report concerning the car accident related to BIGBANG member Daesung. They revealed a segment of the interview with the victim's mother, and concluded that "upon meeting with the victim's family, they said that they did not reach a settlement".

However, with documents (confirmation of the settlement, etc.) sent from Daesung's company, YG Entertainment, it was confirmed that a settlement had been reached. Other media sources had also shown valid proof that Entertainment Relay's broadcast had been different from the truth. Even with this, KBS did not make arrangements for a correction broadcast (etc.), and therefore given the warning.

Hope they will not do the same mistakes in the future :)
