A cub reporter for a small town newspaper was sent out on his first assignment. He submitted the following report to his editor. "Mrs. Smith was injured in a car accident today. She is recovering in County Hospital with lacerations on her breasts."
The Editor scolded the new reporter, "This is a family paper. We don't use words like breasts around here. Now go back and write something more appropriate!"

The young reporter thought long and hard. Finally he handed the Editor the following report. "Mrs. Smith was injured in a car accident today. She is recovering in County Hospital with lacerations on her ( . )( . ) "

The journalist are influenced by the two Political Parties.
In America fox news works for the Republicans and ABC works for the Democrats.
Mr Zeim may write about deprived areas in Ghana because he has not been influenced by any Political Party.
We need different spices to make our food so some Journalist will belong to different Political Parties.
Kortoko cannot play Kotoko and Hearts cannot play Hearts.Its Hearts and Kotoko that makes it very competitive.

Sorry, Mr. Hassan. Your observation that Mr. Pratt and Mr. Baako speak for the NDC and NPP respectively, is not unbelievable and disgraceful of the "noble" journalistic profession. They simply look at the issues from either side of the same political coin. It is up to you to be informed of the true nature of issues going on in the country, and agree or disagree with what either journalist talks about. There are syndicated journalists whose responsibility is to consistently present one side of the political debate. There are strong philosophical differences with regard to the role of government in the lives of the people, so are political parties and journalists who debate and apply these strong different believes in their work to inform the people.

There are grammatical mistakes galore in your write-up and I am ashamed if you are a journalist. God save Ghana if that is the level our education system has descended into.

On the score of objectivity, Kwasi Pratt is better than Kwaku Baako.
