Following the wave of criticism over the manner in which a reporter sat at Prince Reza Pahlavi's press conference in Poland, the daily Britannia newspaper denied the existence of any business relationship with this reporter and wrote on social media: "David Atherton does not work for us and never has. We approached him to ask why he presented himself that way."
This reporter, who took off his shoes and sat on the edge of the wall while questioning Prince Reza Pahlavi, introduced himself as a reporter for the Daily Britain.
The widespread publication of images related to the moment he asked brought harsh criticism, and some users raised the question of whether or not journalists in Britain are allowed to behave in this way in the presence of well-known political figures and the country's royal family.
Also, the well-known figures of the media in Iran, including Camilla Chausifard, an independent Persian editor, contacted the "Daily Britannia" newspaper and emphasized that such behavior is unacceptable for a journalist.
