Synopsis
I want to write a winning history!

"Monster created by political prosecution" Dismissal and presidential election, will we be fooled again?

Newstapa has been exposing his lying behavior and suspicions of violation of the Attorney-at-Law Act since the confirmation hearing of Prosecutor General candidate Yoon Suk Yeol. It was also the first to raise suspicions of Mrs. Kim Gun-hee's manipulation of Deutsche Motors stock prices. For the first time ever, it received and exposed the prosecution's special activity funds, special business expenses, and business promotion expenses execution details through an information disclosure lawsuit. It also traced the essence of the Daejang-dong corruption and exposed the prosecution's biased investigation.
The political prosecution's search and seizure of Newstapa in September 2023 was intended to kill Newstapa, control critical media, and fabricate the appearance that the opposition party was behind Newstapa's reports. The Yoon Seok-yeol administration mobilized the elite prosecution investigation organization and the political world to this end. Newstapa did not give in, and in late 2023, it focused on the suspicion of 'complaints' mobilizing the Korea Communications Commission and the Korea Communications Standards Commission, and from late 2024, it focused on the Myeongtae-gyun Gate, driving the Yoon Suk Yeol administration into a dead end. In September 2023, the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office's Anti-Corruption Investigation Department formed a special investigation team to investigate the manipulation of public opinion in the presidential election by deploying about 10 prosecutors and began suppressing critical media outlets such as Newstapa. On December 3, 2024, President Yoon Suk Yeol declared martial law. Armed martial law troops invaded the National Assembly. Yoon Suk Yeol was arrested and indicted on charges of sedition, but was released after about 50 days when his detention was canceled. The sedition is still ongoing. And Newstapa continues its reporting.
