Principles of News Programing
These can best be summarised by quoting from the Yatsani Radio documents:

Never ever forget that Yatsani Radio is a Catholic radio station and is therefore different from any other form of media.

There are, therefore, certain principles that govern the selection of programmes.
They are as follows:


All groups and individuals within the Church and in society have equal rights to justice and their good name

Any programme must fall within the questions: Is this good/true/beautiful/helpful?" (Not everything that is true is helpful)
Any programme about the Church, or referring to the Church, must promote the true nature and identity of the Church

Any programme of major importance to the Church is referred directly to Church authority before it is broadcast

No programme is to be broadcast which is merely sensational, however newsworthy other media might consider it to be.

No language has priority over any other language used on Yatsani Radio. All languages have a right to be used in Yatsani Radio programming provided it is understood by a sufficient number of people in the coverage area.

Party politics have no place in Yatsani Radio programming except during times of elections. Any political discussion must be confined to issues, not to personalities. Any political Party that denigrates another political Party on Yatsani Radio will be refused transmission time, regardless of the identity of the Party or the politician.

Voter awareness education must be balanced, informative and confined to issues, not to personalities.
