National Transformation Alliance (NTA) political leader and former police commissioner Gary Griffith has called on the media to do better in choosing expert interviewees.

In a press release on Sunday, Griffith said the media needed to better as the trend of “inflating politically aligned voices and dressing them up as objective experts” was a disservice to the public.

“It is time for the national media to wake up and stop misleading the public by carelessly labelling individuals as ‘political analysts’ or ‘security experts’ when in reality their track records and public commentary expose clear political bias and questionable credentials,” it said.
