It was just earlier today that I had asked what has become of the Jamaican media, having been very silent on many issues including asking questions on the China trip and that logistics hub.
Well the Gleaner is reporting that after being invited to a meeting where Anthony Hylton was to be speaking on the logistics hub, they (the media) was asked to leave because the Minister wanted the meeting to be private.
The Jamaica media, which is supposed to the voice of the people is now being dissed and abused by this PNP government and I want to see if they are going to take it lying down. I cannot believe the “free” and once very vocal press has allowed itself to be treated like children, unbelievable !

They are going take it. You will have the odd editorials and the mealy mouth objections but by and large the media will just suck it up. Had the JLP government ever dared to try this. It would’ve been a public lynching of them.
Portia will not allow the media to ask her important questions on parliaments grounds, so why will Hylton invite the media when dealing with a high profile issue? Remember this is the administration that has a problem with the OCG and Indecom
