Prostitutes got balls meh?

She was once part of their team. Why is she acting clueless is beyond logic.

 

[laksaboy]

She criticized the lack of independent editorial voice, implying that ST is merely a government mouthpiece

No need to imply what has been the worst kept secret on this island.

Anyway my hunch is that Miss Bertha is another one of those establishment shills who pretends to offer a contrarian voice. The Tiongs call her kind 'small scold, but big help'.

It's the good cop, bad cop routine. Surely you can guess which role Bertha is playing.

 

[yubenOh]

She had to infiltrate to understand that they had no balls.

Coming from the horse own mouth, Chua pros, it has never been a secret to begin with. The only secret is they lied about ST's impressive circulation numbers and Mr Umrage is still not charged todate.

Background​

Project Eyeball was Singapore's first integrated print and digital newspaper.1 It was launched on 12 August 2000 by the Singapore Press Holdings (SPH).2 Targeted at Internet-savvy readers between the ages of 20 and 40, Project Eyeball aimed to carry news of interest to engage the wired generation.3 Unfortunately, high operating cost and poor circulation rate led to the newspaper's demise less than a year after its launch.4

Concept
Project Eyeball comprised a print newspaper published from Mondays to Saturdays, and an online version which was updated round the clock. While the printed papers carried news and stories specially targeted at young and Internet-savvy readers, the website functioned as an avenue for readers to air their views and interact with journalists via forums and chat rooms. Readers could also access audio and video broadcasts, MP3 downloads as well as other related content and websites.5 Opinions and responses from the online forums were then published in the following day’s newspaper.6

Launch
The plan to roll out Project Eyeball had begun about 10 months before its launch in 2000.7 On 15 February 2000, SPH announced that it had obtained the licence to publish Project Eyeball, with Bertha Henson appointed as editor of the newspaper.8

The Internet version went online on 17 July 2000, while the print issue was launched about a month later, on 12 August.9 The one-month difference was to allow for time to collect views and feedback from readers in order to shape the newspaper.10

The launch of the print version was held at the Shaw House amphitheatre, an event that included performances, fashion shows and contests with attractive prizes. Copies of the issue were also given away free at the event. In the following week, about 120,000 copies were distributed free from Monday to Friday. Each copy of the newspaper cost 80 cents and could be bought at selected bookstores, supermarkets, convenience stores and tertiary institutions.11

Suspension
Project Eyeball was suspended with effect from 29 June 2001, just ten months after its launch. Both the website and print newspapers were closed down, with the last issue published on 28 June. The suspension was attributed to a combination of low circulation rate and advertising revenue, which caused SPH to lose S$13.3 million. The newspaper failed to meet its first-year circulation target of 30,000, and its three-year budget had also been depleted. Furthermore, it had faced fierce competition from two newly launched free newspapers, Streats and Today. Out of the newspaper’s 65 staff, 19 were retrenched and the rest redeployed within SPH.12

This one is AMDL wannabe ?

Her balls were very small when she was working for them. Now, her balls are very big.

 

[Pinkieslut]

If she got balls whyn't she start the ball rolling? In the age of digital media, social platforms, you don't need a big machinery to leeport expose stories.

 

[joemartini]

She want to turn against PAP now?? prove it!!!

first of all, does she dare to speak up against them? dig real deep and expose all the wrong doings? join any of the opposition party and expose & smear the PAP during GE??

 

[oliverlee]

Just another controlled opposition bitch pretending to be a journalist. A real journalist would have been thrown into jail or forced into exile (refer to Lee Hsien Yang) long ago. Never forget what kind of country you are living in.
