His journalist peers around the World repeatedly rated them badly for their of lack of independence and partiality. It's an established track record. The internet has revealed more things than these arseholes. In the Brompton case, the netizen accessed publicly available records with a bit of sweat to break the case. Fucking dishonest and lazy morons.
hahaha....u very credible meh???His journalist peers around the World repeatedly rated them badly for their of lack of independence and partiality. It's an established track record.

A typical frog-in-well sinkee. He doesn't know what is credibility. He is a laughing stock in the international media community. His broadsheet is no different from the PRC or Myanmar newspapers.
By flipping do you mean he would go crazy or he would be just flip to the next page
Even Myanmar now have free media and press under civilian government lead by U Thein Sein.
Credible? Nothing beats Sammyboy.com, tio boh?
The credibility factor is vital. Even a digital ST will suffer from a lack of credibility. When they start featuring Page 3 girls, you know the end is near.
let just say both the MSM and the online platform has churned out disgraceful half truths news.
They must be getting desperate... declining viewership, subscriptions and ad revenue?
When it hurts their pockets it gets personal. It becomes a war.
Piss off, you disgusting SPH presstitutes. :oIo:
Ex-Straits Times editor reveals gov’t meddling in tell-all book
But this is the first time a Singapore editor has gone to print with an insider's take on how the republic's first prime minister Lee Kuan Yew systematically controlled the press with draconian laws and protected it with anti-competition barriers.......
"I will break your neck," Cheong describes Lee as telling him when the rookie reporter tried to make a case for not imposing an embargo on a speech the Prime Minister had made..........
One of the bravest episodes was when Peter Lim, Cheong's predecessor, resisted Lee's pressure to print the full O level results of Opposition politician Chiam See Tong during the 1984 election. Lee wanted to show to voters that Chiam did not have the academic credentials to be a capable MP.......... Peter Lim, tried to run the newsroom with some form of independence and paid the price for it by having to resign.
..........
The Singapore government's intervention in media is legendary. Cheong describes many episodes -- from appointments of editors to shaping coverage of political and foreign events .............
A book of this nature is never complete and never meets one's full expectations because the omissions are many and the shades of truth are varied.................
For instance, the over-night contraction in ST's coverage (after a phone call, that is) of the 1988 election in which former Solicitor General Francis Seow was an Opposition candidate is never mentioned, the private conversation between Cheong and the second prime minister Goh Chok Tong that the government wanted him to take over as editor-in-chief is not explained and how the paper handled the 1987 Internal Security Act arrests for an alleged "Marxist conspiracy" which rankle the elite till today is erased out.........

It's S'pore's Best Forum by a few hundred miles easily.

Because of Cheong, the Govt got away with blue murder. Peter resisted till the very end. Mano Sabnani resisted as well and the Govt asked. Balji to come back from retirement to replace him. Now both arseholes writing articles of truth.
They are possibly arseholes but I'd really like to know if that is all true shit.
