AZERI PRESS AND MASS MEDIA ARE GREAT MASTERS IN SPREADING RUMORS

It's quite impossible to response to rumors that circulate in the
Azeri mass media. It's commonly known that false ideology and lies
are composed at state level and the mass media spares no efforts to
spread the rumors. In order to make their rumors sound realistic, the
Azeri journalists frequently refer to the Armenian mass media sources.
Naturally, RA defense minister Serge Sargsian, is one of the most
favorite targets for the Azeri mass media.
Recently, AzeriPress agency "informed" that, according to Martiros
Sahakian, an official of RA Defense Ministry, Mr. Sargsian lost $650
thousand in one of the Yerevan-based gambling houses. According
to the "information source" this sum was donated to RA Defense
Ministry by archbishop Gnel Jerejian, head of Damask Diocese of the
Armenian Apostolic Church, and Yeghia Kilaghbian, abbot of Mkhitarist
Congregation.
Certainly, we don't need to discuss these rumors thoroughly. We
just need to say that Gnel Jerejian passed away in 2001. As for the
Mkhitarist Congregation, father Harutyun Pzdikian, representative of
the Congregation, gave quite a definite and clear answer by stating
that if they had such big financial sources they would have built
their school in Yerevan.
