WHITHER HEMA AND SAMPSON

Here's a reader who has some questions for CNC 3.

"Woo hoo, Hema Ramkissoon read the mid-day news on CNC3 on Wednesday 13. For once I was able to look at CNC3's entire mid-day newscast for the first time in a very long time.
But Hema, I heard you humming a tone of approval of Winston Dookeran's almost every word, on the background of that telephone interview, very distracting. Next time Hema please only interrupt when you have a question to ask and do not suffer your audience to those distractions.

"Rosemarie Sant you are doing Sampson a disservice by placing him on a set for 30 minutes so soon; considering his experience. It was unfortunate and it is nice that he got another chance, but you have to be wise about this. Let Sampson return to the field and do his stand-ups in two minute packages. What happen to those creative story ideas he is famous for? Those human interest and featuristic pieces? Let him do stories in abundance that will aid in the development of individuals and communities - Just like Gayelle is doing.

"Sampson also needs to change or make adjustments to his attitude in order to help him fit back in - both in living rooms and the media industry, and if I might add, corporate Trinidad and Tobago. Do this for your own good Sampson, so no one would be waiting with bated breath for you to make another flip flop.
