OVER the last two years or so during the Covid-19 pandemic, we have often forgotten to pay tribute to the other, non-obvious, frontline workers: journalists, photographers and other media personnel. They have often been the forgotten heroes who have had to overcome challenges and face hardships on a daily basis to bring us the news, both good and bad.
At times, they have been accused of being biased, of cowing to authority, or of being partisan. But they bear with all these accusations and never waver in bringing news to us, via radio, television, newspapers and magazines.
