Following his recent rant of calling Minister Rishard Bathuideen a ‘pig’ for pledging support to the common opposition candidate, Maithreepala Sirisena, State Media’ Rajpal Abeynayake has now apologized to pigs for the comment.
In his latest tweet Abeynayake says “Come to think of it I shouldn’t hav called Badiudeen a pig fr crossing over with da MP given his post da other day.My apologies to all pigs.”
Abeynayake is a trusted confidant of President Mahinda Rajapaksa and has been handpicked to by him to be the editor of the State Media’s flagship newspaper the Daily News. It is widely believed that Abeynayake expresses the sentiments of the President, especially in his anti-minority and anti-Indian editorials. Immediately after the Aluthgama attacks against Muslims which left at least three civilians dead, Abeynayake justified the attack by extremists Sinhala mobs, who he claimed were provoked by the minority community.
Come to think of it I shouldn’t hav called Badiudeen a pig fr crossing over with da MP given his post da other day.My apologies to all pigs.

The Pig Weerawansa’s thugs attacked, employees deceived
http://www.lankatruth.com/home/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=8062:weerawansas-thugs-attacked-employees-deceived&catid=36:top-stories&Itemid=124
Minister Wimal Weerawansa deploying thugs and several employees of institutions under his ministry had attempted to damage buildings of ‘Sirikotha’, the head office of the UNP at Pita Kotte, on the pretext of having an agitation opposite the building. The UNP activists present at the head office had attacked the attackers.
The employees of the institutions under Weerawansa’s ministry, who had reported for duty at their workplaces before they were brought to the attack, have then protested against the minister for deploying them for the attack.
Minister Wimal Weerawansa, through one of his organizations, had manipulated the attack claiming there was an agreement between Maithripala Sirisena and Ranil Wickremesinghe.
Bottles, stones and other missiles were exchanged between the two parties and the police present at the place had not been able to control the situation.
It has been revealed that employees from Engineering Corporation have been transported for the attack using the vehicle with registered number GI8272.

Abeynaike is showing just how unprofessional he is, and just how vindictive he can be. This ugly talk is classless, and unbecoming for someone who holds that position. It also shows just how sore they are that politicians from there side, are resisting the bribes, and going over to the other side, take quite a big risk.

As far as Bathurdeen was in govt. he was not a pig.now he is! Daily News and all govt. media never had any class people in recent history. It was same with H.L.D. Mahindapala during the Premadasa regime. This reflect the ruler.

At least he does not hide his racist colors like many others whom I know. Many do not even know that they are racists.

Of course the primary job of news paper Editors, Journalists is to educate Leaders in making good decision and also educate the citizens in helping their leaders make good decisions. This is exactly what this editor is doing at this crucial election time in Sri Lanka!
/
Village Green Guy / December 25, 2014
Abeynayake has demeaned the Daily News, once a respected national daily, to the gutter level of a propaganda sheet for the Rajapakse regime.
Isn’t Lake House now a public-funded business enterprise? If it is the case, the press council or the election commissioner should immediately intervene to stop Abeynayake and his counterpart in the Sunday Observer, Weerawansa, from defaming the the common presidential candidate of the opposition.
Public-funded newspapers should not be allowed to be the propaganda mouthpieces of the ruling regime. The two editors, who call themselves Buddhists, don’t practice the moral/ethical axiological (sila) principles of Right Action (samma kammanta), RIght Speech (samma vaca) and Right Livelihood (samma ajiva). All journalists shoul voliuntarily abide by the moral principles embedded in pancasila, which are common to all religions of the world.
I am now convinced that Sri Lankans will vote for change come Jan 8, 2015. Rajapakse could have retired with honor after completing his two_year term. But he simply could not control his greed (tanha) and attachment (upadana) for power.
As a non-partisan observer, I urge the new president to convert Lake House into a truly public corporation that would practice mindful journalism and set an example to the whole world.
Remove the likes of Abeynayake and Weerawansa from holding editorial positions.
