Last evening on @adaderana, Asanga Jayasuriya (chair, #lka Broadcasters' Guild), senior journalist Mohan Samaranayake and I talked with @chaturaalwis on #MediaReformsLK as part of #RebuildSriLanka. Media Min @BandulaDr was due to join panel but didn't.

"IMF ණය ලංකාවට ගේන්නේ කොහොමද? ප්ලේන් කීයක් විතර ඕනෑ වෙයිද ඔය ඩොලර් තොගයට?" මේ රටේ ප්රමුඛ ටෙලිවිෂන් නාලිකාවක පුවත් කාමරයේ මෑතකදී මතු වුණු අවංක ප්රශ්නයක්. විහිලුවක් නොවෙයි. #lka ආර්ථිකය ගොඩ ගන්න අතරෙ ජනමතය හදන තැන්වල තිබෙන මෙවන් ලිංමැඩියාවටත් හදිසි ප්රතිකාර ඕනෑ! #MediaReformsLk

In case my concerns above are misunderstood: yes @rupavahinitv and all other state media are guilty of being propaganda arms of whatever #lka ruling party. For years, I have publicly called for #MediaReformsLk for state media. But threatening staff is NOT how to do it, #Aragalaya
Well noted by @tharinduij: @DivainaCOM [which, like @LankadeepaNews, is privately owned] has long been at forefront of #Rajapaksa's SinBud supremacist & ultra-nationalist messaging. Racist editors now shamelessly cheering #Aragalaya! Why we urgently need #MediaReformsLK. #MediaLK
රාජපක්ෂලා ජාතිවාදය අවුස්සලා, බොරු ගොතලා බලයට එන්න හදන හැටි සහ ඔවුන්ගේ නඩු අයින් කරගන්න ගහන ගේම දිගින් දිගටම හෙළිකරද්දි, ඊට එරෙහිව අවශ්ය කටයුතු කරද්දි අපට "හිඟන්නො" කියල ගහපු අය, ජන අරගලය ගැන මෙහෙම ඇත්ත වර්තා කරන හැටි දැක්කම සතුටුයි ❤
Why we need #MediaReformsLk as a parallel process of essential #PoliticalReformsLk to overcome #SriLankaCrisis
වසර ගණනාවක් පුරා ශ්රී ලාංකීකයින් රාජපක්ෂ වහල් චින්තන දුගීන් බවට පත්කල "දොරමඩලාව" වැඩසටහන දැන් කොස් වහල්ල, ගස් ලබු පොතු සහ කෙසෙල් බඩ කන ආකාරය පිළිබඳව ���නතාව දැනුවත් කරමින් සිටියි. ලංකාවට අද අත්��� ඇති මේ අවාසනාවන්ත ඉරණමට මේ ජනමාධ්ය ජඩයන් වගකිව යුතුය. #SriLankaCrisis #GotaGoHome
As some of us have been saying for years, #MediaLk (esp terrestrial TV) share responsibility for #SriLankaCrisis by uncritical reporting, laundering tainted politicians & neglecting public interest. Thus #PoliticalReformsLk need to be matched by urgent #MediaReformsLk.
Video of Sri Lanka Press Council's webinar is now shared on YouTube [in Sinhala language]

#lka Presidential Media Award 2018
Best multimedia content of the year @virakesari_lk great job @NalakaG #mediareformslk #MediaLK
.4/ Lifetime awards just presented to 4 grand old men at #lka Presidential Media Awards 2018. They have all given their best to #MediaLk for decades. There is still much unfinished business. So after felicitating all award winners, we must get down to #MediaReformsLK
.5/ In my panel remarks I said: media bashing can thrill some but won’t advance #MediaReformsLk cause. Media not charity but biz. Let’s focus on how TV & radio can do good while also doing well. Also, social resp does NOT mean boring or mediocre content. @forfreemedia #BcastLk
.7/ We need to promote #DigitalLiteracy and #DigitalMaturity! Problems online reflect issues offline so we must address both. Key take-aways from session on #DigitalRights I moderated with @PabaDeshapriya and @isura - two #lka young thought leaders on #ICT at #MediaReformsLK
.7/ Excellent moderation by @SankhithaG at #MediaReformsLK conf session on legal impediments to #FreedomOfExpression in #lka: Parliamentary privileges, contempt of court, etc and how journalists can navigate around tricky areas to serve public interest
.4/ We need to be very cautious in reviving criminal defamation laws, cautions media critic Wijayanada Jayaweera. When it was operational, govts used that law to selectively harass critics and media. Find other ways to deal with errant media without this! #MediaReformsLK #MediaLk
“#lka got rid of criminal #defamation in 2003 which was a good move. However, some media’s misconduct since has led to strong lobbying to bring it back. I too support it. Media must self-regulate better or be held accountable by law.” - Senaka de Saram, lawyer #MediaReformsLK
.2/ #lka broadcast media uses public airwaves but has no regulatory framework. #FreedomOfExpression has legal limits. To balance #FOE and societal interests, we need an independent broadcast regulator says @JCWeliamuna at #MediaReformsLK event
Joining #lka conf on media and the law, org by @NSMRLK Colombo Law Society and @forfreemedia. Covering #FOE #MediaRegulation #DigitalRights and other topics. #MediaReformsLK #MediaLk
.2/ Gist of my speech: "Media-bashing is easy & populist. #MediaReformsLK are much harder - but that's precisely what we need to pursue, even if sections of media resists. Our media is seriously sick & we've gone beyond point of self-medication. Thoughtful interventions needed."
අපි බනින්නේ මාධ්ය හදා ගන්නද - නැත්නම් මුළුමනින් විනාශ කර දමන්නද? මාධ්ය ප්රතිසංස්කරණය කරන විට අපේ මතවාදී න්යාය පත්ර නොව මාධ්ය කර්මාන්තයට සහ සමාජයට වඩාත්ම හිතකර වූත්, ප්රායෝගික වූත් විසඳුම් සොයා ගෙන යා යුතුයි. My speech at #MediaReformsLK event yest https://t.co/6usG3YBOkZ
.3/ බැනලා හරි හදාගන්න ප��ළුවන් මාධ්ය අපට තියෙනවද?
කොළඹ හෝ අවට සිටිනවා නම් එන්න අද පස්වරු 3ට - විවෘත සංවාදයකට එක් වන්න!
