Marrakech Press Syndicate Voices Concern Over Journalist Exclusion
The regional branch of the National Syndicate of Moroccan Press in Marrakech has expressed strong condemnation regarding the exclusion of several journalists and representatives from sports media during a press conference organized by the management of Kawkab Marrakech Club. This event was attended by coach Youssef Safri and has raised significant concerns about the treatment of local media which regularly covers the team's activities.
The syndicate has articulated its disapproval of the handling of the media, stating that the press conference was organized away from the awareness of journalists, in a closed space at a hotel in Marrakech. This practice raises numerous questions regarding the reasons behind such exclusionary tactics. The syndicate emphasized that this incident cannot simply be dismissed as a minor communication error, especially at a crucial time when the team is preparing for the new football season.
In its statement, the syndicate has held the Kawkab Marrakech Club management fully accountable for this approach and has demanded clear explanations regarding the failure to invite journalists, alongside the criteria that were presumably used in this decision-making process. Furthermore, the syndicate strongly rejected any form of selective treatment, urging the club management to rectify this situation without delay.
In conclusion, the syndicate reaffirmed its commitment to supporting journalists and retaining the right to pursue all necessary professional and advocacy actions to defend the dignity of media professionals and their right to access information.
