PETALING JAYA: The main threat of laws relating to Anti-Fake News to journalists is that those who don't like certain news articles may take action to remove them, according to media groups.
The ability of individuals to make ex-parte applications (urgent applications to a judge from one party) to remove news articles will affect the media house's credibility, and ultimately, readership and revenue, said Ram Anand, who is representing both the Institute of Journalists Malaysia (IOJ) and Wan-IFRA Media Freedom Committee (Malaysia).
