Journalists are infallible as all human beings

MAY I indicate my dismay with the double standards expressed by some journalists as reported in Sowetan of March 18.

I have always thought it was common sense not to throw stones if you live in a glass house.

It is disappointing that people claiming to fight for integrity are the ones running for cover when they are to be exposed. Infallibility is an attribute found in the human race.

This type of hypocrisy begs the question, why is the media ganging up against Floyd Shibambo? What are they are hiding? Basically, what is good for the goose is good for the gander or what are these journalists telling us? What they want is to be treated differently. Shibambo is spot on when he refuses to apologise. Let the affected journalists approach the courts for relief.
