The Convention People’s Party (CPP), has urged journalists never to surrender to the threats and intimidation of people in government in their quest to expose the ills in the society.
The party said journalists and their media houses would do a great disservice to the nation ‘if they preferred to stay silent on state officials who will stop at nothing to cow everyone into submission.
Acting General Secretary of the Party, James Kwabena Bomfeh emphasised the need for media practitioners to learn the rules governing their calling and practice, and the power of the press to do good.
The statement said for the journalism profession to attain its deserved height, journalists must be above the “vague and unrealistic claim of neutrality.”
