Not realising that the reporter was actually a um-bai planted by his rival, he went ballistic and incurred public wrath.

Fcw75 Hypersonic May 10, 2021 Share May 10, 2021 (edited) From Mustsharenews: This is the 1997 printout from TNP that Leader of the Opposition Pritam Singh shared in Parliament today (10 May) to highlight his point on editorial independence in Singapore. He added that the only thing objective about the page is the EPL scores below. 🤣🤣 Communications & Information Minister S Iswaran had said earlier that Singapore's media already has a culture of editorial independence. "We do a disservice to our journalists and editors to suggest anything to the contrary," he said. Edited May 10, 2021 by Fcw75 6 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Editorial independence I don't think is important to them otherwise they long already jump to other jobs already. Honestly if I am in their shoes I also do the same.
