Dear colleague! Mr. Shafieyan, the esteemed manager of Ensaf News, greetings again.

I wish you had adhered to ethics and "justice" in your written communication. You expressed your point in a way that suggests I was an employee of the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB). No, I have never been an employee of any organization. I am still an independent content creator.

I have never produced a program in favor of or against anyone.

The Cooperative Chamber and any institution established under the approved laws of the Islamic Republic are associated with this system. Furthermore, the responsibilities, powers, and the extent of the president of this chamber's influence in the decisions of the Islamic Republic can be understood with just a brief review of the chamber's website.

Even you, if you participate as a simple Iranian journalist in an international assembly, are a journalist from "the Islamic Republic of Iran," not just "Iran."

This is not a very difficult or complex concept.

Your comparison of me to Kayhan or a broad media organization like IRIB, both of whose heads are appointed by the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic, reflects your high regard and kindness toward Abdi Media and myself, along with a somewhat mystical view of a one-person media outlet.

However, your comparison is flawed; just as I am here responding to you, I have replied to every individual who sent a message, and I have repeatedly stated that anyone whose news is published by Abdi Media has the right to respond, and their exact response will be published. Therefore, please be aware that the opinions and views of individuals are very important to me. I produce news, programs, and content from the people and for the people.

While I still cannot believe that what you wrote and accused me of reflects your true feelings, I invite you, as a recognized journalist and media owner, instead of spending your valuable time protesting a title in a news article or accusing me of competing or being hostile towards the Islamic Republic—which only leads to the kind of file-making you referred to—to focus on the essence of the published news, disseminate it for public awareness, and "explain" it.

Engage with the newly released president of the Cooperative Chamber while he has the opportunity for temporary freedom, and inquire about the reasons for his detention and how the "very heavy bail" for his release was secured.

Of course, I have not judged the details of his charges like others.

In doing so, you would fulfill your duty and help raise community awareness.

Regarding the adherence or non-adherence to professional media ethics on my part, it is clear that I can freely produce any content in any manner, or be like many other media outlets filled with insults or sensational news, but I adhere to professional ethical principles. However, my words are certainly not the measure. Let’s leave the judgment to the people. I have repeatedly stated that our time will pass quickly, and history and the future will judge us all ruthlessly.

Wishing you success in disseminating awareness.
