As members on this list would have noticed, I do have a special interest in the way journalists report on issues. I think that the media is an important element in democracy, particularly to ensure that democracy functions in a healthy manner. So, when the three candidates for the president of GUJ set out their agenda, I looked at it a little more carefully. I would appreciate if Fredrick (or anyone else) can respond to a couple of my queries, which are as follows:

1. Suhasini Prabhugaonkar said: "Open up dialogue with Herald management to settle disputes of the Herald employees." What exactly is the dispute?

2. Ashley do Rosario said: "Carry forward the process of evolving an effective method or mode (Ombudsman, possibly) on implementing a Code of Conduct and Ethics in journalism." I am happy to note that there is a code. Is it available anywhere, either in print or on the net?
