Time: Völkermord Redaktionsrichtlinien und DVD

Mit der Europa-Ausgabe vom 12. Februar 2007 wird TIME Magazine eine umfangreiche DVD sowie ein ganzseitiges Inserat über den armenischen Völkermord veröffentlichen. Damit wird die auflagenstarke Zeitschrift (europäische Ausgabe: 550'000 Exemplare) ihren Fehler vom 6. Juni 2005 korrigieren, als sie eine DVD der Handelskammer von Ankara unbesehen veröffentlicht hatte, die den armenischen Völkermord unter dem Deckmantel touristischer Werbung aufs Übelste leugnete.

Time Magazine distribue gratuitement le DVD "Le Génocide Arménien"
de Info Collectif VAN - www.collectifvan.org - Info CVAN :

Le Time Magazine fait amende honorable : la version européenne du célèbre magazine diffuse gratuitement à 550 000 exemplaires, le DVD "Le Génocide Arménien" de Laurence Jourdan, contenant en prime l'interview de 46 minutes du Dr Yves Ternon, afin de s'excuser d'avoir inséré dans son édition du 6 juin 2005, le DVD de propagande négationniste du Génocide arménien, émanant de la Chambre de Commerce d'Ankara. Les associations anti-négationnistes ont remporté là une bataille dans le combat qui les oppose au négationnisme d'Etat de la Turquie. Le Collectif VAN vous propose la traduction résumée du Communiqué.

Le Time Magazine, édition européenne, dans son numéro du 12 février 2007 disponible dans tous les kiosques à travers l'Europe, va éditer une annonce pleine-page sur le génocide arménien, et insèrer le DVD en anglais et en français "Le Génocide Arménien" de Laurence Jourdan, comprenant également le bonus de l'interview de 46 minutes du Dr Yves Ternon, expert reconnu de l'histoire du génocide arménien.
L'annonce et le DVD sont diffusés gratuitement par le Time Europe à 550 000 exemplaires, l'équipe du Time ayant inséré dans l'édition du 6 juin 2005, et sans examen approprié, un DVD payé par la Chambre de Commerce d'Ankara. Ce DVD, sensé être destiné à promouvoir le tourisme en Turquie, contenait en fait des mensonges malveillants et de la propagande négationniste contre le génocide arménien.

Pour corriger cette erreur, le Time Europe avait publié le 17 octobre 2005, un courrier des lecteurs signé conjointement par 5 associations françaises : Mémoire 2000, le Conseil de Coordination des Organisations Arméniennes de France (CCAF), le Comité de Défense de la Cause Arménienne (CDCA) -- ANC France, J'Accuse, et le Mouvement contre le Racisme et pour l'Amitié entre les Peuples (MRAP).
Dans une note de l'Editeur faisant suite à cette lettre, le Time avait présenté ses excuses pour la diffusion de ce DVD.

En Décembre 2005, ces 5 associations, auxquelles s'étaient jointes l'Association Suisse-Arménie (SAA), l'Association Française des Avocats et Juristes Arméniens (AFAJA), la Fédération Euro-Arménienne pour la Justice et la Démocratie (EAFJD), et le journal "Le Courrier de Californie" ont trouvé un accord à l'amiable, le Time s'engageant à ne plus falsifier dans les pages de son magazine l'histoire du Genocide Arménien.

Par la suite, Michel Elliot, le Rédacteur du Time International, a publié la déclaration suivante : "nous vous informons que, en commun avec d'autres agences de presse de premier plan, la politique et la pratique du Time est de se référer au génocide arménien comme un fait historique. En conséquence, j'informe nos correspondants et rédacteurs que le terme ' le génocide arménien ' devra être utilisé sans qualification."

Armenian lobby hits back with Time’s help
Time magazine on Friday released a 52-minute documentary by French director Laurence Jourdan on the Armenian “genocide.”[/b]

With a full-page advertisement by “a coalition of Armenian Groups,” the DVD also includes a 46-minute interview with Dr. Yves Ternon on the Armenian “genocide.” The DVD and the advertisement have been paid for by Time, according to European Armenian Federation.

Delighted with Time’s reaction, the Armenian lobby announced that Michael Elliot, the director of Time International, had said Time had decided to call the 1915 events a genocide and called on all editors and correspondents to describe 1915 only as a genocide.

Time’s decision to distribute the DVD came after a CD made by the Ankara Chamber of Commerce last year was distributed by Time. According to the European Armenian Federation, Time decided to correct this mistake and agreed to financially back and distribute the documentary.
The distribution of 550,000 copies with the European edition of Time comes in the wake of the assassination of Hrant Dink. In addition, while a French bill criminalizing the denial of an Armenian genocide is awaiting Senate approval, EU term president Germany has proposed a pan-European law to imprison deniers of genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity.
There are serious allegations in the one-page advertisement, which are considered to be baseless by Ankara. Some of them are:
“Who after all, speaks today of the annihilation of the Armenians?” Hitler posed this question on Aug. 22, 1939 before embarking on the Holocaust.
The New York Times, the Los Angeles Times, the Boston Globe, the Montreal Gazette and Time magazine call 1915 a genocide.
The UN Sub-Commission on Prevention of Discrimination and Protection of Minorities and over a dozen European countries affirmed that the 1915 events were a genocide.

TIME yields to the Armenian lobby too

The eminent news magazine of the USA, Time, propitiated the European Armenian lobbies who reacted to the Turkey publicity DVD Time gave free in 2005. At the European edition, Time distributed free "Armenian genocide" DVD.

America's world famous weekly news magazine, Time gave free Armenian genocide DVD and poster at its European edition. Behind this promotion decision of the magazine lied the reactions of Armenian lobbies to Turkey publicity DVD Time gave free in 2005. The DVD contains an interview of 46 minutes with the French historian Yves Ternon and a documentary named "Armenian genocide" by French director Laurance Jourdan.

Un numéro de « Time Magazine » consacré au génocide arménien

Le bureau d’information du parti Tachnag a publié hier le communiqué suivant :

« L’édition européenne de Time Magazine datée du 12 février, disponible sur le marché libanais à partir d’aujourd’hui, comprend une double page sur le génocide arménien. Cet article est en outre accompagné d’un documentaire en langues anglaise et française sur un DVD distribué avec la revue. Ce documentaire, qui aborde la réalité du génocide, a été réalisé par Laurence Jourdan, un réalisateur français.

En juillet 2006, la revue Time Magazine avait distribué un DVD de publicité touristique pour le compte de la Turquie, financé par la Chambre de commerce d’Ankara. Il s’est ensuite avéré que ce DVD contenait des erreurs historiques ayant pour but de modifier des vérités historiques ayant trait au génocide arménien. Cet incident a immédiatement provoqué une vive réaction dans les rangs des associations et organisations européennes qui ont demandé à la revue de corriger cette erreur, demande qui avait alors été publiée dans les colonnes de Time Magazine, avec en plus des excuses présentées par la revue, à côté du texte ainsi publié.

Le rédacteur en chef de Time International, Michael Elliot, avait ainsi affirmé à cet égard que la politique de la revue la conduisait à aborder le sujet du génocide arménien comme étant un fait historique. Il a ensuite demandé aux rédacteurs de la revue d’utiliser de manière systématique l’expression “génocide arménien”.

Dans ce cadre, la ligue de défense de la cause arménienne au Liban du parti Tachnag se joint aux Arméniens d’Europe pour exprimer sa joie et sa reconnaissance envers cette initiative entreprise par Time. »

TIME carries documentary, adopts policy on Armenian Genocide


The Feb. 12, 2007 issue of the European edition of TIME magazine -- available in newsstands throughout Europe as of Feb. 2 -- carries a full-page factual announcement on the Armenian Genocide, along with a complimentary DVD, in English and French, which contains a compelling 52-minute documentary on the Armenian Genocide by French director Laurence Jourdan. The DVD also includes a 46-minute interview with Dr. Yves Ternon, a leading expert on the Armenian Genocide.

Both the DVD and the full-page ad were provided free of charge by TIME Europe (circulation 550,000) after realizing that its staff, without proper review, had inserted in the June 6, 2005 issue of TIME Europe a Turkish DVD as a paid advertisement under the guise of promoting tourism to Turkey. The Turkish DVD, paid for by the Ankara Chamber of Commerce, was a deceitful attempt to spread malicious lies and denialist propaganda on the Armenian Genocide.

To correct this error, TIME (Europe) published, in its October 17, 2005 issue, a critical page-long letter to the editor jointly signed by five French organizations. In an Editor's note appended to the letter, TIME apologized for disseminating the Turkish DVD.

In December 2005, the five organizations along with the Switzerland-Armenia Association (SAA), the French Association of Armenian Lawyers and Jurists (AFAJA), the European - Armenian Federation for Justice and Democracy (EAFJD), and The California Courier newspaper reached an amicable agreement with TIME executives ensuring that the facts of the Armenian Genocide are not distorted again in the pages of the magazine.

Subsequently, Michael Elliott, the Editor of TIME International, issued the following public statement: "Please be advised that, in common with other leading news organizations, it is TIME's policy and practice to refer to the Armenian genocide as a historical fact. Accordingly, I will be informing our correspondents and editors that the term 'Armenian genocide' should be used without qualification."

The abovementioned organizations said in an announcement that are fully satisfied with the corrective steps taken by TIME magazine. They are also pleased that the Turkish attempt to distort the facts of the Armenian Genocide, supported by considerable financial resources, was properly countered as a result of these organizations' close cooperation with TIME which placed journalistic ethics above all other considerations.

PRESS RELEASE

TIME Dergisi Ermeni Soykırımına dair dil kuralı belirledi ve Belgesel film yayımladı

2 Şubat’tan itibaren Avrupa’nin bütün gazete satış büfe ve dükkanlarından temin edilebilecek olan TIME Dergisi’nin 12 Şubat tarihli Avrupa baskısı, Ermeni Soykırımı’na dair gerçeklere tam sayfa yer verdi ve Ermeni Soykırımına dair Fransız rejisör Laurence Jourdan’ın yaptığı Fransızca ve İngilizce 52 dakikalık belgesel bir DVD-filmi ek olarak yayımladı. Sözkonusu DVD, aynı zamanda Ermeni Soykırımı konusunda önde gelen uzmanlardan biri olan Dr. Yves Ternon ile yapılmış 46 dakşkalık
röportajı da içeriyor.

DVD ve tam sayfa açıklama, 550.000 tirajlı TIME Europa’yla beraber ücretsiz olarak sunuluyor. Bunun nedeni, 6 Haziran 2005 tarihli TIME’la birlikte yayımlanan, dergi elemanlerından ilgili kişinin gerekli kontrolleri yapmaksızın, tutarı Ankara Ticaret Odası tarafından karşılanan sözümona
Türkiye’nin turistik reklamını içermesi gereken DVD aracılığıyla, ahtekarca bir tarzda, Ermeni Soykırımına dair korkunç ve kötü niyetli yalan ve propapandaya kalkışılmasıydı.

Bu yanlışlığın düzeltilmesi amacıyla, TIME Europa’nın 17 Ekim 2005 tarihli nüshasında, Fransa’dan Memoire 2000, der Koordinierungsrat der armenischen Organisationen Frankreichs (CCAF), Comité de Defense de la Cause Armenienne (CDCA) – ANC France, J'Accuse, ve die Bewegung gegen Rassismus und für Völkerfreundschaft (MRAP) adlı beş kuruluş adına tam sayfalık eleştirel bir okuyucu mektubu yayınlandı. TIME redaksiyonu tarafından açıklamaya ilişkin düşülen notta, Türk DVD’sinin yayımından dolayı özür dileniyordu.

Aralık 2005’te, die Gesellschaft Schweiz-Armenien (GSA), die französische Vereinigung armenischer Anwälte und Juristen (AFAJA), die Europäisch-Armenische Föderation für Gerechtigkeit und Demokratie (EAFJD) adlı beş kuruluş ve The California Courier adlı gazete TIME yönetimine başvurarak , gelecekte de dergide Ermeni Soykrımı gerçeğinin yeniden tersyüz edilme ihtimalinin olup olmayacağına dair bilgi istedi
TIME International yayımcısı Michael Elliott, neticede kamuoyuna şu açıklamayı yaptı: "Time’ın diğer önde gelen haber kuruluşları da dahil, Ermeni Soykırımının bir gerçek olduğu yönündeki düşünce çizgi ve pratiğimiz içtenlikle bilgilerinize sunulur. Redaktör ve muhabirlerimize Ermeni Soykırımı kavramının farklı sıfatlar eklenmeksizin kullanılması bilgisi verilmiştir."

Yukarıda adları anılan kuruluşlar TIME Dergisi tarafından hatanın düzeltilmesine yönelik aldığı tedbirlerden memnun olduğunu ifade eder. Bu bağlamda, Türk tarafının büyük paralar harcayarak Ermeni Soykırımı gerçeğini tersyüz etme girişiminin, TIME ile işbirliği sonucu başa çıkarılması ve gazetecilik ahlakının gaip gelmesinden duyulun sevinci de bir kez daha dile getirir.
