Tina went ahead and dropped a letter from the Uganda Media Council addressed to her, The New Vision Printing and Publishing Company Limited Kampala, and the producer Scoop on Scoop show Urban TV.
The letter was headed in the matter of disciplinary proceedings against the producer Urban TV Scoop on Scoop show and Ms Christine Karungi.
It was referenced with breach of code of ethics/minimum standards of broadcasting and promoting inflammatory/hate speech – decision of the committee.
Christine Karungi who was apparently incensed about the government decision to allow Mr. Ben Kavuya to repatriate members of his family into the country during the COVID-19 Pandemic.
While accusing Minister Kuteesa and by extension by government of Uganda of the favoritism Ms Karungi made a clarion call on Ugandans to rise up and fight the privileged and connected few who bend rules to suit their whims and families while leaving poor Ugandans stranded in foreign capitals.
She used expletives and unsavoury language and went as far as wishing death upon the Hon. Kuteesa and the Kavuya family subject of her tirade.
At no time in the impugned tirade did she indicate whether she was dealing with the fact or opinion nor did she give any reason.
