TV channels Ecuavisa and Teleamazonas yesterday rejected the government accusations of being part of an alleged conspiracy plan.

And he points out that Ecuavisa does not assume these attitudes in any case. “We do not incited protesters, nor have we ever incited,” Espinosa de los Monteros said, in addition to emphasize that informing is their duty.

Through a statement on Twitter, Teleamazonas answered “against insinuations made by government spokesmen” the TV channel “rejects the intention to involve it in a destabilizing plan of the Government and the democratic order”.
