AG says don't read the Fiji Times

This is a beaut one.  No mention of the polticizing of news by the Fiji Sun which should be called the Fiji Sin. AG reckons he never reads the Fiji Times!

FARMERS in the North have been told not to read this newspaper.

Attorney-General Aiyaz Sayed-Khaiyum advised farmers in Seaqaqa not to read The Fiji Times.

Responding to a Seaqaqa farmer's concerns regarding an article on a proposed project at the Labasa FSC mill, Mr Sayed-Khaiyum said he never reads The Fiji Times.

Mr Sayed-Khaiyum told the farmer not to read The Fiji Times, adding he is serious about his statement.

According to Mr Sayed-Khaiyum, The Fiji Times politicised issues blaming this newspaper for spreading rumours.

Mr Sayed-Khaiyum was responding to Seaqaqa farmer Himam Ali's concerns regarding an article published in this newspaper quoting former FSC executive chairman Abdul Khan.

When Mr Ali queried the statement was not the newspaper's but that of Mr Khan, Mr Sayed-Khaiyum said irrespective of that he should stop reading the newspaper.
