"if the government doesn't like what you print/say, you get frozen out the clubs and hence out of all government news"
What happened to independent investigative reporting?
- makeitdouble 4y agoThey don’t get invited and do their own investigation and reporting instead of paraphrasing government announcements. I think it’s the same pattern in many countries, where there will be two different rythme: almost immediate news with official communication coming in near real-time, and a second wave of news from journalists who took more time to form an opinion/check what they want to publish. Both waves happen in big newspapers, independent ones only bet on the second wave.
