Unreadable wording

Some of the sentences in this article make no sense. DemonDays64 (talk) 17:08, 2 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Deleting POV and OR

In 2018, the major media control and censorship has been strengthened, fortified, and accomplished. Moon's government occupied the broadcasting systems[14] [15](e.g., MBC, SBS, KBS, EBS, JTBC, and YTN, etc.,) including the Information and Communications Ethics Committee (정보통신윤리위원회) and the broadcast unions to control over the media creation, management, and control. Therefore, many journalists, who have different opinion against the current government, were forcefully resigned and disappeared. Under the context, the major media outlets have started to make the similar voices by excluding the different opinion against current government and its policy. Therefore, journalists who were forcefully resigned, created alternative media outlets including YouTube channels (e.g., Jogapjea TV[16], PenN,[17] Touches of God[18], Free North Korea including the youth, and the elders who found the current situation including the censorship against the freedom of expression and freedom of information, to announce current issues of the nation including the significant changes of the system, economic policy, legal changes, and culture.[clarification needed]

This seems OR/POV at best, vandalism at worst.

1)References 14 and 15 refers to another wikipedia article, not an actual source. edit : my mistake, the sources are Youtube video presenting a political claim from a conservative professor. Not sure if this is a credible source. Could be rephrased/relocated into criticism. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 180.64.105.65 (talk) 09:42, 20 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

2)So far as I am aware there were no "disappeared" journalists within South Korea in recent years, and if someone wishes to claim so, they will need to provide a source for this.

3) The three channels provided here are hardly qualified: The owner of Source 16 was ousted from mainstream media in Korea in 2005 - far before the current government came into power. 17 is an officially registered media outlet(albeit minor) in Korea, complete with both on-line and off-line presence and subscription program. 18 seems to be the only alternate media, but even then there are little evidence to indicate that it was formed from journalists fleeing governmental oppression. It is formed by many ex-journalists yes, but there are no indications that they were fired forcibly.

Considering that this entire paragraph has no source at all, I believe it is only proper to remove it as a whole.
