In recent days, the news that BTV Khanh Trang made a basic mistake on the 7pm news has caused great public outrage. Immediately, the station announced the suspension of BTV Khanh Trang, but social media is still not satisfied with the demand to punish one more person.

Recently, the 7pm news of a national television station surprised the audience when anchor Khanh Trang accidentally misread information about the border conflict, mistaking Cambodia and Thailand for Vietnam and Thailand. This "sensitive" information was immediately recognized and spread widely on social networks, causing a wave of strong reactions from the community.

Upon receiving feedback on this serious violation, the station immediately took action, corrected the information and announced the suspension of Editor Khanh Trang for making a basic mistake when presenting the news. This is considered an extremely serious problem, affecting the national image and causing great confusion for the people. However, this incident became even more heated when many opinions said that simply condemning Editor Khanh Trang was not enough, but it was necessary to hold accountable all those involved in the content and request reform of the station's working apparatus.

"Editor alone is not enough": revealing the strict process of political news, people demand to handle the entire content writing team

Immediately after the announcement of the suspension of Editor Khanh Trang, social media has not shown any signs of cooling down. Editor Khanh Trang's misreading continues to be posted, dissected and analyzed thoroughly. Accordingly, someone who claims to have worked at the station has spoken up, saying that the content that Editor Khanh Trang reads directly on the news must go through many stages of checking and careful review. In particular, this is also about political news, related to sensitive national issues, so the information review must be done even more carefully, with the participation of many levels of editors and censors.

However, when the news was released, it was not enough to just condemn BTV Khanh Trang. Public opinion expressed deep disappointment that a large, reputable television station continuously reported such serious violations. Social networks were indignant and demanded that all those involved in the content of this news be punished and held jointly responsible with BTV Khanh Trang.

The fact that the female editor from Nghe An led the news and did not detect the violation leading to a serious mistake is the right thing to do, but the people behind the content, from editing, censorship to management, need to take joint responsibility to ensure fairness and professionalism.

VTV loses serious points: consecutive violations, from the Prime Minister to life problems, required to reform the apparatus

It is worth noting that this is not the first time that a national television station has repeatedly reported serious errors. Remember, when it reported news about Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh, it also caused a wave of public outrage due to information errors. In addition, daily news about life issues has also been continuously reported as inaccurate, causing confusion and misunderstanding among the people.

Continuously making elementary mistakes like this is causing VTV to lose serious points in the eyes of the audience, reducing trust in a prestigious television channel. Many people have asked the Department of Culture and Information to intervene to impose heavy, deterrent penalties, and require the television station to reform the way it works. A prestigious television station, highly trusted by the audience, but continuously making elementary mistakes like this can cause a part of the audience to be misinformed, leading to many serious and unforeseeable consequences, especially in political and social issues.

In addition to the criticism, many people still expressed regret for veteran editor Khanh Trang. Over the years, she has devoted herself to the station and built a beautiful image in the hearts of the audience. However, accidentally reading a sensitive piece of information left her unable to "react" and had to receive a suspension decision, a high price for an unnecessary mistake.
