Laye, I still recommend a re-read of "A Comedy of Errors" by my friend Shaky Shaky.
Haruna.

Subject: [G_L] What Are Suntu's Standards?
Suntu:
I correctly predicted that the next words off your blabs are that I a member of
CCG. Go ahead, call a press conference and satisfy your orgies. Such is your
manner of thinking. You like to make things up in your head.
However, I cannot and do not intend to judge you as a person. Rather the
inherent danger in the way you insist and fabricate ideas in your head and put
those forward as irrefutable facts. You tend to present yourself, either naively
or intentionally, as the most neutral person ever, the most daring ever, the
most straightforward when it comes to issues relating how Gambians fight their
plight. You present yourself as if you are the one who sets the standards for
all to follow.
With that in mind, I will take a few lines from your most recent posting and
follow up with simple questions for you to answer. With this exercise, I am
hoping we can all get to know the real Suntu or at least have a better glimpse
into how you process your thoughts to help us understand what you are trying to
tell us. I truly believe that you are either way too misunderstood because you
think faster and wider than everyone else; or you are outright malicious in your
uncanny knack for making stuff up.
Please indulge me:
1- You wrote: “…the hopes of our democracy's future depends on the impartiality
of our press.”
What is Suntu’s standard(s) for “impartiality of our press?”
2- “But that is what live politics breed...individuals always want to take glory
whilst the Shack is attacking...”
Can you please share with us the names of the individuals who “always
want to take glory…?” And the circumstances you are referring to?
3- “....the reason certain newspapers cannot do justice to opposition parties is
because they are actively competing with them in other avenues.”
Which newspapers “are actively competing with…” and what is your standard
for “doing justice” to opposition parties?
4- “….we need our newspapers and the journalist to be free and balance,
newspapers and the journalist should control or understand the stage of our
politics.”
What is your standard for a journalist to be “free and balance” and how
do you think newspapers and journalist are going to be able to “control and
understand the stage of our politics.”
Suntu, in the interest of clarity and fair exchange, I, and I hope many on this
forum, would like to know the answers to the questions I posed. If you feel you
do not need to answer these questions, then I will have to make my own
conclusions on the quoted statements based on how I understand them. Is that
fair enough?
-Laye
