@dennistarapore: Media wants politicians to be transparent, but do not want sources to be revealed. Why? Can’t journalists be transparent? #mediawatch
We demand and demand for politicians to be transparent. We cry for open decision making. Most journalists want impeccable standards from the entire world. But what when they break their own codes!
Journalists often demand special treatment, ask for favours and refuse to remain transparent about their sources? Why? Given the secrecy on sources, how many hide behind imaginary self created sources to extend their line of argument? And besides if the source is not revealed, why should I believe the journalist? Should she not have the same integrity being demanded of politicians and the rest of the world?
