YTN Slams Accusations of Fake News, Demands Public Apology from Rep. Kim Hyun

News channel YTN has demanded a public clarification and apology from Rep. Kim Hyun, who accused the broadcaster of being a media outlet that produces false information, so-called "fake news."

In a press release issued today, YTN pointed out that Kim's denunciation of the entire broadcaster without any evidence or specific examples was inappropriate conduct for a member of the National Assembly. The company stated that while erroneous reporting should be criticized and corrected, the baseless claim that it produces fabricated information damages the honor of the entire YTN team working on the front lines of news.
