Outrage over the staff shake-up at ZNS has reportedly reached a new pitch with the revelation that hirees include relatives of a Cabinet minister and a senior executive appointed by the PLP.
This follows claims that seasoned journalists were reassigned, allegedly because of their political leanings, to make way for a number of PLP supporters and operatives.
“One asked, ‘How the hell could you tell the staff you have no money, yet hire all these people and bring them in at senior posts and big salaries?’ The answer was something about how you have to spend money to make money,” the source said. “Staff have now asked the union what’s next, as even more people line up to get hired.”
