Browsing: Hajj Airlift: The Lies of a Journalist

One of the ethics of journalism, as taught in schools of journalism, is for a writer to give equal space to all parties involved in a storyline before its broadcast or publication and when a journalist, perhaps for a deliberate act, becomes a prosecutor and a judge in its case, ignoring ethics of its profession, one is free to question his certification and his mindset when his write-up brims with hatred, vengeance, character assassination and names calling. One is left to say he has a devilish intention and a premeditated action to discredit a perceived enemy, who in this case is the Management of the National Hajj Commission of Nigeria (NAHCON).
