Why were journalists in Juba arrested over a social media video?
kasujja Yes
kasujja Is there any rationale behind sharing that image of the president to the world? This has nothing to do with press freedom.
kasujja Publishing a president wetting himself is not news. It’s tabloid fodder which is not news, but clickbait. Should they be jailed. No. Should the editors be reprimanded, possibly. There is enough going on in the South Sudan that should be reported on. Financial corruption for one.
kasujja But how they can release such footage of their country's president? They should be jailed for such nonsense act
kasujja Journalists are also soldiers, they go where no one else does,unless they're military, writers like Hemingway joined to be in the front lines,& took his job as a medic & that of a journalist as his duty,writers get ' bad press' pulp& tabloid,yes,but front line press are heros
