Pacific Media Watch - the A-G summons to the Fiji Times

To Whom It May Concern,
Re: A-G Summons: A quick question to clarify the relationship here between the Fiji government and the media: Is there not public information or public relations personnel working for the government? Shouldn't this rather be their job instead of the leaders?
Thanks for the article,
Clare

Congratulations to the CI News team!

Congratulations to John Woods for his new role!
And especially to Phil and Wendy for keeping the Cook Islands News daily going through an economic crisis - something I wasn't able to do - and providing one of the stronger examples of media independence in the face of years of political interference in the industry.
Look forward to hearing some day what will be their next venture.
But in the meantime, some well deserved rest is long overdue!
Kia manuia,
Jason Brown
