The outrage it caused among journalists the attack by the presenter of Radio Arvyla, Antonis Kanakis, was expressed in words by the journalist of Sky, Christos Nikolaidis, who has been at the scene of the national tragedy from the first moment. Christos Nikolaidis responds to Antonis Kanakis and the “sacking” of journalists and says: “Listen, then, you ridiculous tycoon, who became a millionaire as an entertainer: when I arrived at Tempe, together with my colleagues, my shoes stuck to the hot sheets.
Firefighters and EMS tearfully collected human parts and piled the black bags next to the wreckage
The air was filled with the worst smell I’ve ever smelled, a mixture of burning flesh, oils and melted sheet metal.
I didn’t sleep for 48 hours. Because I was looking. And do you know something Mr. TV artist? If today all of Greece knows clearly how, when and why the accident happened, if now any Greek you ask will tell you about the shift of the stationmasters, about the scissors that remained closed, about the remote control system that does not work, about the who was on duty at that time and so many other things because the Journalists whom you curse in such a vile way discovered and broadcast them! They brought them to the knowledge of every Greek.

The full text of Christos Nikolaidis’ post follows:

Antonis Kanakis, I am writing to you so that you can have it in text: you are an obscene mudslinger, vulgar and unacceptably abusive.
I saw your demek angry log as I lay exhausted in my hotel bed, at the end of another exhausting day, an extremely difficult mission.
And I heard you talk about journalists-parrots, about the world that justifiably hates us and about people who try to create another reality.
I was waiting for you to speak specifically. I was waiting to hear the name of a colleague who pissed you off with what he said.
But you made no distinction.
You’ve got us all wrapped up in your cheap characterizations.
You put in the same category those who spoil you, for any justified or unjustified reason. And those who work in reporting.
So listen, you ridiculous tycoon, who became a millionaire as an entertainer: when I arrived at Tempe, together with my colleagues, my shoes stuck to the hot sheets.
Firefighters and EMS tearfully collected human parts and piled the black bags next to the wreckage
The air was filled with the worst smell I’ve ever smelled, a mixture of burning flesh, oils and melted sheet metal.
I didn’t sleep for 48 hours. Because I was looking. And do you know something Mr. TV artist? If today all of Greece knows clearly how, when and why the accident happened, if now any Greek you ask will tell you about the shift of the stationmasters, about the scissors that remained closed, about the remote control system that does not work, about the who was on duty at that time and so many other things are because the Journalists whom you curse in such a vile way, discovered and broadcast them! They brought them to the knowledge of every Greek.
I am very sure that OSE would not want his laundry to be aired. Nor would the government want all this to be known with its delays. Nor would SYRIZA want many to know about its own responsibilities. The Ministry of Infrastructure would very much like you to never know about the Remote Control System. The stationmasters would also kill to keep it from being known that they beat her up on their shift. And the Inspector would very much like no one to know that he took sick leave. More than you wished that the processions of Stathis should never be known.
But everything is in the light today. All of Greece knows…
And of course not thanks to your own show
