Readers’ replies to JydskeVestkysten’s editor-in-chief, Mads Sandemann. Last week, Mads Sandemann wrote that we “could spread lies and misinformation”, unlike his own media outlet, which “with independent journalism on behalf of the public… exists to promote democracy and social cohesion.” Read below what our readers think of Sandemann’s sharp analysis ;0) The background is that we have written more than 100 articles exposing a network of businesspeople and politicians who appear to control Sønderborg, Als and parts of Southern Jutland with a firm hand. Some are experts at exploiting unintended loopholes in tax law and have gained substantial financial benefits ultimately paid for by you as a taxpayer.
At the same time, they all cover each other’s backs. If you get in the way of one member of this power elite, they are all against you, including the lawyers, officials and decision-makers placed high in municipal, state and private companies. They can therefore make life difficult through lawsuits, false police complaints, pressure on employers and other effective tools.
Despite hundreds of bankruptcies, where assets vanish into thin air, and other creative initiatives, these capable people have, strangely enough, completely escaped the attention of the local press, JydskeVestkysten/Jysk Fynske Medier. Perhaps because the network has one of its own in a powerful position in the media group. We have spent many hours researching each of our stories, and alongside the articles we have presented the documentation on which they are based.
Everyone can therefore check our information themselves through our links. As Sandemann quite rightly points out, we do not need to document anything – but we do so anyway. It is therefore a little tiresome to read that JydskeVestkysten’s editor-in-chief Mads Sandemann (who has, incidentally, previously threatened to sue us for pointing out the connection between the media outlet and Venstre politician Peter Erik Hansen), in a comment on our post, dismisses our journalistic work by describing us as a: ‘Facebook page which can unfortunately spread lies and misinformation without having to take responsibility for them.’ We would actually have liked to respond to that assertion.
But honestly, we do not need to. Our readers have already done so. A great many of you have seen the connection. .

Læsersvar til JydskeVestkystens chefredaktør, Mads Sandemann Mads Sandemann skrev i sidste uge, at vi ”kunne sprede løgne og misinformation” i modsætning til hans eget medie, som ”med uafhængig journalistik på vegne af offentligheden…. er sat i verden for at fremme demokratiet og sammenhængskraften i samfundet.” Læs herunder, hvad vores læsere mener om Sandemanns skarpe analyse ;0) Forhistorien er, at vi har skrevet mere end 100 artikler, der afdækker et netværk af erhvervsfolk og politikere, der med hård hånd ser ud til at styre Sønderborg, Als og dele af Sønderjylland.

Kommer du på tværs af et medlem af denne magtelite, har du dem alle mod dig: Også de der er jurister, embedsmænd og beslutningstagere placeret højt oppe i kommunale, statslige og private virksomheder. Derfor kan de gøre livet vanskeligt for dig, gennem sagsanlæg, falske politianmeldelser, pression på arbejdsgivere og flere andre effektive værktøjer. Disse dygtige mennesker har, trods hundredevis af konkurser (hvor værdier forsvinder ud i den blå luft) og andre kreative tiltag, sjovt nok helt undgået den lokale presse (JydskeVestkystens/Jysk Fynske Mediers) opmærksomhed.
Måske fordi netværket har en af deres egne placeret på en magtfuld position i mediekoncernen. Vi har brugt mange timer på research til hver enkelt af vores historier, og vi har sammen med artiklerne fremlagt den dokumentation, de er baseret på. Alle kan derfor, via vore links, selv kontrollere vores oplysninger.
Vi behøver, som Sandemann så rigtigt påpeger, ikke at dokumentere noget - men vi gør det alligevel. Derfor er det lidt anstrengende at skulle læse, at JydskeVestkystens chefredaktør Mads Sandemann (som i øvrigt tidligere har truet os med sagsanlæg for at påpege forbindelsen mellem mediet og Venstrepolitikeren Peter Erik Hansen) i en kommentar til vores opslag, affærdiger vores journalistiske indsats ved at omtale os som en: ”Facebook-side, som desværre kan sprede løgne og misinformation uden at skulle tage ansvar for dem.” Den påstand ville vi egentlig godt have imødekommet. Men helt ærligt.
Det behøver vi ikke. Det har vores læsere nemlig allerede gjort. Rigtig mange af jer har set sammenhængen. .

Last week Mads Sandemann wrote that we ‘could spread lies and misinformation’, unlike his own media outlet, which ‘with independent journalism on behalf of the public…. exists to promote democracy and social cohesion.’
Read below what our readers think of Sandemann’s incisive analysis ;0)
The background is that we have written more than 100 articles exposing a network of businesspeople and politicians who appear to rule Sønderborg, Als and parts of southern Jutland with an iron fist. Some of these people are experts at exploiting unintended loopholes in tax law and have reaped substantial financial gains ultimately paid for by you as a taxpayer. At the same time, everyone covers each other's backs.
If you get in the way of a member of this power elite, they are all against you—including lawyers, officials and decision-makers in senior positions in municipal, state and private companies. They can therefore make life difficult for you through lawsuits, false police reports, pressure on employers and several other effective tools. Despite hundreds of bankruptcies, where assets vanish into thin air, and other creative initiatives, these capable people have, strangely enough, entirely escaped the attention of the local press, JydskeVestkysten/Jysk Fynske Medier.
Perhaps because the network has one of its own in a powerful position within the media group. We have spent many hours researching each of our stories and published the supporting documentation alongside the articles. Through our links, everyone can therefore check our information themselves.
As Sandemann quite rightly points out, we are not obliged to document anything, but we do so anyway. It is therefore somewhat tiresome to read that JydskeVestkysten’s editor-in-chief Mads Sandemann, who has previously threatened us with legal action for pointing out the connection between the media outlet and Venstre politician Peter Erik Hansen, dismisses our journalistic effort in a comment on our post by describing us as a:

To the owner,
I request that the post headed “Political power games prevent the rebuilding of Skansegården” on the Facebook page Dybbøl Banke Skansegården be changed immediately so that the undocumented allegation of unlawful acts by Jysk Fynske Medier and JydskeVestkysten is removed. Jysk Fynske Medier and JydskeVestkysten engage in neither corruption, questionable use of media support nor abuse of power.
I also expect the Facebook page to apologise for making the allegation. No one on the board, and no one in Jysk Fynske Medier’s executive management other than the editor-in-chief with editorial responsibility, Peter Orry, has any influence whatsoever over the editorial content of our media. Kind regards

Subject: Påstand om ulovligheder skal fjernes
To: ejeren
Cc: Peter Johannes Orry Jensen <POR@jv.dk>, Halldor Henriksen <hahen@jv.dk>
Til ejeren,
Jeg vil bede om, at der på Facebook-siden Dybbøl Banke Skansegården straks ændres i opslaget med overskriften, Politisk magtspil forhindrer opbygning af Skansegården, så den udokumenterede påstand om ulovligheder begået af Jysk Fynske Medier og JydskeVestkysten fjernes. Jysk Fynske Medier og JydskeVestkysten udøver hverken korruption, tvivlsom brug af mediestøtte eller magtmisbrug. Jeg forventer også, at Facebook-siden beklager, at den har fremsat påstanden.
Ingen i bestyrelsen og ingen andre i direktionen for Jysk Fynske Medier end ansvarhavende chefredaktør Peter Orry har nogen som helst indflydelse på det redaktionelle indhold i vores medier. Venlig hilsen
Mads Sandemann
