KUWAIT, Aug 16 (KUNA) -- A Jordanian military official said on Wednesday that Kuwait's state-run news agency KUNA is a highly adept and reputable media outlet.
Speaking to KUNA as he met with the news agency's deputy director general of the editorial department and Editor-in-chief Saad Al- Ali, director of the Jordanian army's moral guidance department Awda Al-Shadayfat said ties between the military and the media are pivotal. Meanwhile, Al-Shadayfat's counterpart in the Kuwaiti army lieutenant colonel Abdulaziz Al-Refai said that the Kuwaiti army makes it a point to interact with the media, given the growing significance of that sector.
He added that KUNA's services are very informative and comprehensive, saying that the meeting tackled strategies for a closer rapport between KUNA and the army's moral guidance department.
KUNA's chief editor Al-Ali spoke of how instrumental the media is in educating the masses and KUNA's solid ties with the Ministry of Defense.
He pointed out that the rise of social media represented a challenge for media institutions, as the information shared on these websites is usually fallible. (end) ays.nam
