Misleading public opinion… Hespress confuses “arrest” and “arrest”… fake news.

The effects of Hespress newspaper’s use of the phrase“Arrest”Awad“Arrest”In covering one of the cases, a wave of questions about the extent of its respect for journalistic professionalism and commitment to accuracy in conveying data with a legal dimension.

Followers believe that the term“Arrest”It is used legally in the preliminary investigation stage when a person is placed in theoretical custody, while the word“Arrest”It is understood that the person has been convicted or has been sentenced to imprisonment. This confusion, according to the same sources, may mislead public opinion and affect the image of the person involved before any judicial decision is issued.

Observers hold the newspaper’s publishing director fully responsible, as he is responsible for monitoring headlines and content before publishing them, ensuring that journalists respect professional ethics and avoid any misleading or unjustified excitement.

As for the background of this “error”, two basic possibilities are presented: The first is the pursuit ofIncrease viewership and interaction ratesThrough sensational headlines closer to “yellow journalism”, the second may be understood asAn attempt at incitement Or creating a preconceived negative image of the detainee, similar to an “unfair media trial.”Media experts confirm that such practices weaken reader confidence in journalistic platforms, and highlight the need to strengthen self-censorship within newsrooms and strictly adhere to professional and ethical responsibility.
