Apologies comes in different shape and sizes, some apology is said just to shut you up, some is said to mock you while others is said to avoid trouble. Anyway I sell quality vintage shirts, ranked number one in the world. See my thread now 6 Likes |

It has reached a point where both sides of the divide know that the majority of these stories are either outright fabrications, or exaggerations, or dilutions of the truth. But it is politically expedient and unfortunately, most of our media houses do not adhere to the ethics of good journalism. I am convinced that if you dig deeper into any of these outlets you will find that many of them receive funding from unusual sources such as the diaspora. Heavy agendas are being pursued using the media. It's so bad that once I'm reading any news article and see that the source is "an unnamed source" I am convinced that the story is likely a fabrication. The media should be the one neutral party that we can trust as we navigate these present perilous waters as a nation but nope, they prefer to thrust us deeper into contrived chaos. 9 Likes 1 Share |

naptu2:It's time to fully activate the aspects of online and offline defamation laws. It's NOT enough to make apologies (and accept apologies here) because fabricated news stories go viral online and remain there for life. These FAKE stories have populated cyberspace and in 10 to 15 years when online searches are being made, the younger ones would stumble on these fabricated and defamatory stories and believe them. History is being distorted right before our very eyes with fake news and those among the deviant Journalists and wannabe bloggers and YouTubers who relentlessly push out fabricated and HIGHLY defamatory news MUST be brought to maximum justice for engaging in mass misinformation of the public. The punishments must be severe to deter others. 5 Likes 2 Shares |

nenergy: He was arrested on March 15th and released 14 days after, on March 29th. How is a retraction coming on the 7th of May, nearly a month and a half later, possibly linked to that earlier arrest and release, but not - to your mind - the later warning letter served on them on the 3rd of May, just 4 days apart?

This is a post I made about a broadcast media. The practice has been common among the print media over the years. Recently, a media house popular among the GenZs has been doing what was done hush hush in media circles in the past, i.e., when journalists are PR consultants to some wealthy but shady businessmen, companies, and politicians. Some of them are used to plant stories in the media or used to kill stories that may potentially embarrass their paymasters. Some of the journalists who write lengthy columns in their newspapers sometime sell those columns to the highest bidder, where they write to promote the paymaster or demonize the paymaster's enemies sometimes. If you see someone writing castigating someone, be rest assured that the writer may have been paid heavily for that hatchet job. Senior journalists know what I am talking about and won't deny this. Some senior journalists opened companies to get PR contracts from shady businessmen. It is a multi-million naira business. If you open any newspaper and you see a company getting some favourable press, the company paid for it. Trust me, if not for the advent of online journalism with Fisayo Soyombo's Foundation for Investigative Journalism and Sahara Reporters, Yahaya Bello's case would not have made it to the press. Nor IBD Dende. Another trick is that when you see a media house consistently attack someone, they want the person to come and settle. Above is the business model of one of the controversial TV stations in Nigeria. But they now carry out their media assassination in full glare of all of us. They repeat a lie consistently until it becomes gospel truth to buffoons. What sort of journalism is that? If they didn't receive PR consulting contracts, why was one television station consistent in attacking the candidate of the APC while giving positive press to the candidates of PDP and LP? It was so bad that the media proprietor of the said media house launched a direct attack on the candidate of the APC. That had never happened in the history of Nigerian politics. Now, why is the same media house discrediting the coastal road project? Did Landmark retain them for PR? Remember that this same media house never interviewed anyone or gave rigorous coverage to the Emefiele trial as they did the cases they had an interest towards protecting. What I explained above was drawn from a petition written by a dismissed editor of PUNCH newspapers against a former director of the newspaper some ten years ago, and from my own observation of the media business. It was common in the print media; it is now being brought to the fore in the broadcast media by the same controversial television station. It is shameful. Ladies and gentlemen, while it is sensible to seek information and entertainment from the media, never forget that it is a business and the highest bidder receives the best press coverage. They are not after your interest. 3 Likes |

grandstar: The sad part is the publishers are educated and know what they are doing. They are rather targeting the less educated masses who tend to consume everything once it appeals to certain emotions. This is propaganda at work, not ignorance. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Enemies of the nation and stupid rumors sha..... This reminds of the lies against Me Mohammed few years ago. Quoted : I explained that, even if I managed to divert every kobo of it to my personal account, it would take at least 104 years to save the sum of 1.3 billion dollars being peddled that I stole,” he said. Rumors are carried by haters, spread by fools, and accepted by idiots. 3 Likes 1 Share
