The third breakout group focused on safeguarding objectivity in reporting, especially when covering sensitive or high-stakes topics. The discussion revealed key risks including personal bias, organisational pressure, lack of access to reliable data, and overreliance on single-source perspectives.
@Innocent_Eteng, Managing Director of @PrimeProgressng, outlined the group’s proposals, emphasising stronger fact-checking routines, better data literacy for reporters, clearer internal editorial policies, and expanding source networks to reduce blind spots.
