[Chapter-delegates] Urgent suggestion

[Shreedeep Rayamajhi]

Narelle, things are completely different in this side of the world.
Journalists are careless and reckless, they do not follow the code of
conduct and the federation probably works towards political aspiration and
protecting the rights of their own members only. Most of these organization
try to work their way out coz they have affiliation with other
international organization where they  cannot escape.

In such scenario I think the federation or press council is not an option.
Journalist have to be awakened with the dose of impact and consequences of
content.

Publishing online Content with any purpose directly impacting the image of
any institution or organization should be punishable in no degree of
consideration.  Here we are not talking about a blog or a person's personal
FOE. Here we are talking about a professional person who with his purpose
of intention wrote that news for popularity.
I think FOE and Purpose of intention are two different things which needs
to be treated separately.




Cheers to Life
