What a professionalism lesson for public media of EthiopiaBY ANDUALEM SISAY GESSESSE – WEEKEND READING – Whenever I meet with my colleagues working for public media in Ethiopia, the issue they often raise is absence of freedom to exercise the golden profession they trained to serve the public independently. Especially for public media outlets in Africa and other developing countries there is nothing more important than to serve their public. The fact that these public media of Ethiopia ignored to report shows how the editorial team has fallen in the hands of the people on power. Making these media outlets really public media needs the boldness of the journalist working in those institutions at least who studied journalism. If you don’t learn a lesson from boldness of the Ethiopian Human Rights Commission now, then when?
