PHILIPSBURG:--- Minister of Public Housing, Spatial Planning, Environment and Infrastructure (Ministry of VROMI) Hon. Maurice Lake will be forwarded a letter to the Council of Ministers with respect to 'yellow journalism.'
'Yellow journalism' is described as a type of journalism that presents little or no legitimate well-researched news and instead uses eye-catching headlines to sell news.
Techniques include exaggeration of news events, scandal-mongering, or sensationalism.
The attached letter from the Minister is self-explanatory and will be submitted to the Secretariat of the Council of Ministers (COM) to be booked in as incoming correspondence for the COM to handle.
