Zimbabwean journalists must be better resourced
From Bulawayo Agenda:
A leading academic and analyst, Dr Lawton Hikwa, said journalists need to be sufficiently resourced so as to avoid being used by politicians. Hikwa said for journalists to be sincere, fair and unbiased in their reporting they do not have to ask for favors, especially from politicians who he described as manipulative. Most journalists in Zimbabwe are not adequately resourced by their media houses. This has led to them being bailed out by politicians, who in turn demand that they do not report against them
