Government and media relations have traditionally been tenuous; governments looking at the media as snoozers in affairs deemed good for the citizens while media holding governments accountable on public interest issues.
This is a normal professional thing that must be accepted and respected. Nothing personal.
Challenge has been, in our governments, everybody is a media and communication ‘’experts” or has some beef with the media while a few journalists/editors have some personal scores with government to sort.
