Unfinished Business

Some action is being taken to give the TVM newsroom a fighting chance at independence after we leave. Here's a picture of the team meeting with exective producer Mustafa to redesign the newsroom. It groups everyone in teams and has no room for the VIP crew. There is also a policy being drafted so that press releases that are not breaking news will have to arrive at least one hour before airtime to be used. This should eliminate the problem of propaganda being force-fed into the show at the last minute. Everyone will benefit since complete coverage of the newsworthy announcements can be planned and given the prominence it deserves.
