If the Zimbabwean government is genuinely reformist, ensuring the editorial independence of a public media outlet in the mould of the Zimpapers stable and transforming the ZBC to a public broadcaster should be central to this reform process. #handsoffOurEditors #mediareformsnow
..It is not a sustainable argument to suggest that supporting government and party is justifiable on the basis that it happens elsewhere in contravention of our own Constitution!

1/5 This a classic case of editorial interference with a chilling effect on the free enterprise of journalism.

@TabaniMoyo @NLinZimbabwe @forfreemedia @IFEX @AFEXafrica @MAZ_Zim @ZimMedia21 @OpenParlyZw @UKinZimbabwe @GMCZimbabwe @WomenInNews "Yet it seems that we have drifted far apart with ZMC. If the current position continues, media must not be bound by the decision to support statutory regulation, but rather, agree as stakeholders and defend our principle of self-regulation".- @TabaniMoyo

@TabaniMoyo @NLinZimbabwe @forfreemedia @IFEX @AFEXafrica @MAZ_Zim @ZimMedia21 @OpenParlyZw If the regulation of the media is handled well, the govt will have turned a leaf into a new chapter around media development, support, operation. Yet a wrong turn will lead to the re-birth of Aippa through a different package.- @TabaniMoyo

@TabaniMoyo @NLinZimbabwe @forfreemedia @IFEX @AFEXafrica @MAZ_Zim @ZimMedia21 If government through the ZMC proceed in defence of statutory regulation against the industry’s position of defending self-regulation, we must equally make it clear that we, the industry is in defence of self-regulation. - Tabani Moyo says
#mediareformsnow
@TabaniMoyo There is hence the need to set the benchmark for the attainment of high-quality laws through measuring them against the regional and continental instruments- @TabaniMoyo
#mediareformsnow
@TabaniMoyo "We must therefore take advantage of this multi-stakeholder engagement approach towards changing the circumstances through holding direly the proposition that Zimbabwe has taken long to reform these laws"- @TabaniMoyo
#mediareformsnow
@TabaniMoyo 3. Narrow view of the reform process will contribute to the weakening of the constitution of Zimbabwe and feed into a constitutional crisis- Conditions to rescue to process and enhance the quality of reforms
#mediareformsnow
@TabaniMoyo 2. The recognition of the bankruptcy of these laws in as far as we are concerned with the realisation of the citizens’ quest for access to information, enjoyment of right to privacy & for the media to self-govern as enshrined in the constitution.
#mediareformsnow
@TabaniMoyo 1. The need for the completion of the process of liquidation of the undemocratic and restrictive laws that governs expression, privacy, access to information holistically- Conditions to rescue to process and enhance the quality of reforms
#mediareformsnow
@TabaniMoyo Conditions exist that motivates for the stakeholders, the government, and partners to rescue the process and enhance the quality of reforms that are holistic and comprehensive. - Tabani Moyo says
#mediareformsnow
@TabaniMoyo The data and privacy regulation remains void. The BSA has since been highlighted as one of the bills that will be presented in the 9th session of parliament by the President. While the Cyber and Data Protection Bill is now before the president.
#mediareformsnow
@TabaniMoyo It is this commitment towards breaking with the past which is on trial. As the old saying goes: “the taste of the pudding is in the eating”.
