Basic qualification for journalists




Basic qualification for journalists
Justice Markanda Kadju’s suggestion for formal qualification for journalist has sparked a healthy discussion as his other observations on different matters have done. This suggestion is in a way good, because the journalist can come into the profession with basic knowledge and confidence in reporting and can improve their skill in reporting though their experience, wisdom and their own capacities instead of wasting their time in learning through trail and error methods. The time thus saved can be used for developing professionalism and expertise in their chosen field of activity. Formal training in any field will not go a waste. But it should not be made compulsory for entering into journalism field .
