The Fiji Media Council has called on all journalists around the country to strive for excellence, report fairly and correctly, to prevent the interim government taking swift action to regulate the media industry.
Council chairman Daryl Tarte made this comment while officially launching the 4th Fiji Awards for Media Excellence (FAME) at the Fiji Times conference room this morning.
Tarte added all Media Code of Ethics should be strictly followed by journalists so that the interim government does not get any grounds to take away media freedom. He said such journalists are recognized through the FAME awards.
He said there should not be any space for any complaints against any media for reporting incorrectly and or taking a biased approach in any story.
This year there will be 53 categories including, Radio awards, Print, Television and Advertising.
The FAME awards will be held on the 20th of September at the Tradewinds Entertainment Center in Lami.
