The incident in France is not only a cruel terrorism act, but also
violation against freedom of speech. "Charlie Hebdo" magazine has
risen problems through cartoon.
Cartoonist Arzo has fought against undesirable phenomena through
pencil for 20 years. He has depicted almost all the politicians in
his pictures, but he has never received threats against him.
"7 or" (7 Days) news website regularly presents cartoons mainly on
inner political topics. Media in Armenia have their unwritten moral
norms and they try not to violate them.
"Chorrord Ishkhanutyun" (Fourth Power) newspaper editors have their
own moral limits. Especially they take into account the geopolitical
location of Armenia.
Mher Ghalechyan, the Director of "Chorrord Ishkhanutyun" (Fourth
Power) newspaper, notes, "I don't imagine someone making the cartoon
of Muhammad in our region taking into account our location, our
neighbors. Maybe it isn't prohibited but we understand that it can
have unpleasant consequences."
