Singapore Media and Censorship
Written byMong Palatino
After working for three years as sub-editor in a leading Singapore newspaper, Mark Fenn explains how censorship is enforced in the country:
Control at the paper is exercised both overtly and through more subtle means. Self-censorship, meanwhile, is ubiquitous.
…it was not uncommon for reporters to alter their stories at a very late stage because the “newsmaker” or a government department wanted to alter the wording of a quote or headline.
