‘We need more journalists’: Ramaphosa calls for support for the media industry | Citypress

“As we begin the great task of rebuilding our economy in the aftermath of the pandemic, the media industry will need our support more than ever,” he said in his weekly newsletter to the nation.

“It has been six months since the national state of disaster was proclaimed. Despite the unprecedented nature of the disease and the immense challenge of placing a country of 58 million people under lockdown, we have fared well. We have managed to contain the spread of the disease primarily because of the cooperation and vigilance of all citizens,” he added.We owe a debt of gratitude to South Africa’s hardworking and tenacious journalists.

“During this pandemic, our media has played not just its traditional watchdog role, but exercised its civic duty in supporting the national effort to contain the coronavirus,” Ramaphosa said. These financial difficulties were being faced across the board, from online titles to traditional broadsheets to the public broadcaster.

“At the same time we need more young journalists in the profession who are tech-savvy, abreast with new trends in storytelling and in touch with the concerns of a youthful population,” he said.
