VOA has already become untrusted media outlet.Broadcasting incorrect fragmented news and information to the listenrs is absolutely being irrisponsible and a diservece to the listener.Yes,Henock,your professinalism is a reflection of the culture of VOA,as a whole.
Henock,if not sure about what you are doing,don’t do it;pause for a little and ask yourself the right question.One of the option you had on assigned task at G8 summit,when not sure about what to do, was to note broadcast that particular news rather than witholding the news.
I get my news from ESAT because ESAT is trusted.

The question that I would ask Henok is: If it were not for ESAT, was that the only information we could get from you about this big event?
