Why are freelance journalists treated shabbily?
Some media houses (publications) have a habit of treating freelance writers as though they are beggars. When commissioned to do an article they you give a deadline, which as we all know is cast in stone. Yet when it comes to paying up, they keep procrastinating and bombard you with a mountain of excuses. Is this fair?
Many a freelance writer has had to endure lengthy delays for payment of freelance work submitted to a publication. If you can meet their deadline, why can't they keep their word? MPASA needs to look into this.
