The Real Failures To Ghana Stanza 3

THE REAL FAILURES TO GHANA

 














By: Joyce Ohenewaa Kwapong


STANZA 3:


Cheap Journalism! Overrun with 
 mediocrity

Information embellished with falsehood on front pages

LIES! Published as headlines

Our nation, Ghana! Devoid of objective journalism

Responsible journalism gone missing

The media supposing to be candles 

That illuminate our country 

Has turned out to be thick ugly darkness

Plunging the good people of the Nation in dark lies

Journalists committed to getting it first

Without interest in getting it right

Less investigation,Quick reporting; their focus

Journalism standards gone so low

Forums for discussion of National issues

Have become a platform for insults and ridicule

Cheap Journalism! A real failure to Ghana

Cheap Journalism we must all avoid



LAST STANZA unfolds....
