Dear Editor,
I refer to a section of the article ‘Media slammed over ‘poor’ parliament coverage’ written by Ms Miranda La Rose which appeared in the edition of May 29. That section reported on opposition MPs claiming that “only government MP’s presentations were aired during peak periods while opposition MP’s presentations were aired during the ‘graveyard’ hours.”
NCN is of the firm opinion that the news report wittingly or unwittingly used statements by the opposition to tarnish the image of the company. I would be bold enough to suggest also that the reporter did not apply professional journalistic practice in presenting a balanced report. A simple call to me would have revealed that the assertions by the MPs are exactly what they are: assertions and mischievous.
