Tackling corruption in the newsroom
Tawanda Majoni
March 06, 2012
Gallup International perception survey done for Transparency International Zimbabwe gives the local media a saddening grading of six out of the ten most corrupt institutions in the country, sharing Mammon’s high table with the police, political parties, parliament, the civil service and the judiciary.
