Voluntary Media Council of Zimbabwe (VMCZ) projects officer
Loft Dube has slammed the Chronicle for repeated unethical conduct.
Speaking at a media conference in Bulawayo, Dube said the
ZBC and Chronicle should be critical of ZANU-PF rather than to rubber stamp it.
“ZBC should fairly cover issues rather than rubber stamp
ZANU-PF,” Dube said. “This increases tension and hostility in the post election
period.”
The objection by the ombudsmen comes at a period when once
again the Chronicle has reiterated on sanctions, taking it to be their lead
story.
“I think this sanctions thing is nothing but a ZANU-PF
political gimmick to obscure us from the real situation,” said Brian Sibanda, a
regular Chronicle reader.
Research has revealed that it has become a tendency that once
in a while, the state media reiterates on sanctions, blaming on them while
forgetting the role that the sitting government should play.
