T&T media owners slam minister for dictatorial manner

Feb 06, 2013

(Trinidad Express) THE TRINIDAD and Tobago Publishers and Broadcasters Association (TTPBA) has criticised Communications Minister Jamal Mohammed for his “dictatorial manner” about the airing of Government programming and says it will be seeking a legal opinion on the matter. TTPBA, in a press release yesterday, expressed “grave concerns” that Mohammed sent letters to TV broadcasters giving a time for programmes to be aired and this was the second occasion he “attempted to dictate a broadcast schedule to the media”. The TTPBA noted that it was “disappointed and surprised” by this move in light of a meeting held with Mohammed last October.
