Information is just like food, thinks media specialist Samvel Martirosyan, once buying a bad product from a store, a person informs everybody about it so that they will be careful. The same must be in the information field, “People must rely on the websites, which have clear address, don’t deceive, bear responsibility for their articles.” The recent tension at the border has become a reason to raise this issue once again, “Even without it in this difficult situation many “orphan” websites have already emerged, which started spreading much disinformation trying to gather numerous views for them.” Samvel Martirosyan thinks that all these have much negative influence on the audience, “A large number of videos have been spread, as if Armenians are punishing Azerbaijanis, which were mostly videos from Ukrainian conflict and military exercises.” Mr. Martirosyan reminds that if the news articles in this or that media outlets start with the titles “urgent”, “breaking”, they cannot be serious. Media specialist regrets to say that in this chaos the Azerbaijani side doesn’t sit idly, “They are creating Armenian websites and are spreading disinformation through them, they are posting videos, as if how Armenians are firing at the Azerbaijani positions. Armenian readers not knowing that it is a forgery by the adversary are spreading their materials on the Internet.” At the same time Samvel Martirosyan notes that such websites generate a demand for the censorship in the society.
