On
Sunday, December 4, 2011, Jordanian MP Mohammad Suleiman Al-Shawabkeh made threats against the Khaberni
website because of an error in writing his name, in an article listing the MPs
who voted the confidence to the new government. Al-Shawabkeh's middle name
"Suleiman" was changed to "Fayez”.
The
site published a statement denouncing the threats coming from a representative
of the Kindgom’s legislative branch, pointing out the challenges facing media
and journalists. And the statement added, "the error in writing the name
of the MPs does not deserve all these threats of aggression and the insults
that we refrain from publishing. It would have been better to contact the site
to inform us of the typo, which we would have immediately corrected.
"Khaberni also said that it was not the first time that this MP was
disrespectful to the website’s reporters, recalling the insults he had
previously made against
one of them.
For
his part, MP Mohammad Al-Suleiman Shawabkeh denied threatening the Khaberni
website and said that the error in writing his name was deliberate and that it
was part of a tribal quarrel.
