For 20 years, CNC3 has lived its mantra — “We are, where you are.” Trust­ed by the na­tion as a lead­ing source of news and in­for­ma­tion, CNC3 has stood firm­ly at the heart of Trinidad and To­ba­go’s sto­ry. From break­ing de­vel­op­ments that shape pol­i­cy at the high­est lev­els of so­ci­ety, to the every­day strug­gles and tri­umphs of or­di­nary cit­i­zens, CNC3 has brought truth, bal­ance, and con­nec­tion to every house­hold. As a me­dia house, its reach spans board­rooms and back­yards alike, earn­ing the trust of all. At 20, CNC3 reaf­firms its com­mit­ment to be­ing wher­ev­er the peo­ple are. In an age when in­de­pen­dent, pro­fes­sion­al jour­nal­ism is more im­por­tant than ever be­fore, the As­so­ci­a­tion of Caribbean Me­dia Work­ers (ACM) con­grat­u­lates CNC3 on its 20th an­niver­sary of qual­i­ty news and en­ter­tain­ment.

The ACM com­mends this mile­stone and hopes the sta­tion con­tin­ues to grow in strength, as Trinidad and To­ba­go, the re­gion, and the wider world in­creas­ing­ly re­ly on de­ci­sion-mak­ing based on sen­si­ble, clear, and ac­cu­rate in­for­ma­tion, now threat­ened by grow­ing mis and dis­in­for­ma­tion.

Glob­al­ly, so­ci­eties are grap­pling with a tidal wave of in­for­ma­tion com­pet­ing for at­ten­tion. Con­tent pro­duc­tion has be­come cheap­er and more ac­ces­si­ble, with many plat­forms en­cour­ag­ing users not on­ly to con­sume but to cre­ate and share me­dia.
