LBCI to stop live coverage of speeches and press conferences…Actions, not words are required now

The Lebanese Broadcasting Corporation International (LBCI) decided on Friday to stop the live coverage of speeches, press conferences, chats and statements.

It also issued the following statement:

“Because after August 4 will not be the same as before it,

Because after the earthquake will not be the same as before it,

Because your neglect and failure are one of the main reasons for what we have reached…

Because what is required after August 4 is:

Actions and not words 

Achievements and not speeches 

No live coverage of speeches, press conferences, chats and statements will be aired as of today:

Let your achievements speak for you…Don’t distract people with words

And for the people, we say:

“While you wait for the speeches of your leaders on tenterhooks…there are mothers who are waiting for the return of their sons and daughters too… The priority is for them and not for you.”
