Do you mean to say that even our most reliable news media panders to the administration in power, and doesn’t tell the whole truth to the Zimbabwean people?
Oh my stars and garters! You’re shocked?
Try reading some of the newspapers from outside Zimbabwe. You’ll find a totally different viewpoint. Our newspapers, radios, and televisions used to go in search of the truth.
A big thanks to the communication technology, there’s a whole world of in-depth information available. But do they even compare their own coverage to the foreign press? Or check out the videos on the internet? No. They sit on their collective backsides and put out the latest government or corporate press release as breaking news, whether or not it bears any resemblence to the facts. Local news is made up of product plugs, “human interest” stories and police blotter “bleeders”, along with hyped-up local weather and sports. Anyone with a modicum of intelligence is insulted by what passes for news today.
