Guyana's president's office denies excluding media, citing standard selection and time limits, amid press freedom concerns.
The Guyana Press Association is addressing concerns over media access at a recent presidential press conference, where some outlets reported exclusion and questioning restrictions, though the Office of the President denies deliberate exclusion, stating invitations were sent to its officially recognized Presidential Press Corp. Stabroek News clarified it received an oral invitation despite a misleading headline.
The Office maintains it selects participants based on professional standards, a practice common in democracies, and limited questions due to time, not censorship.
Critics, including Reporters Without Borders, have raised concerns about press freedom, but the government and some local voices argue these claims rely on biased narratives and lack independent verification, asserting that media under the PPP/C government enjoys unprecedented access and freedom.
