In the times of the coronavirus outbreak and the ongoing lockdown, we have a lot many people to thank us for. Doctors, nurses, health workers, and police personnel are among the top of the list. At the same time, we should really not forget to thank our journalist fraternity, who also has been putting its life on risk to bring us the news from across the world and has been keeping us updated and alert minute by minute. After all, they surely must be venturing out of their safety net to do reporting and gathering information for us. For long, journalists have always been judged for umpteen reasons. But having worked for nearly a decade in the mainstream media, I know journalists have their constraints too. And at such a tough time when their life and livelihood are at risk, we should really appreciate the commendable work that they do. Kudos!
