Delayed news in DS

We have seen an example of objective and responsible reporting from The Daily Star on December 3. A foreign media circulated a story of fund transfer from Grameen Bank to a sister organisation Grameen Kalyan. Using this as a source the media at home made a news story on December 2 that created undue sensation in society. The news story created disturbance in the minds of the readers. Some of them, who take pride in the performance of Grameen Bank and its winning of the Nobel Peace Prize, were shocked at the allegations.
The Daily Star did not publish any news on this issue on December 2. The newspaper, however, came out with the news on December 3 and explained why it preferred to keep mum on December 2. We are impressed by the reasons why The Daily Star did not publish the news earlier, and especially by the style of presenting the news. We hope the media in our country will take a lesson from it in dealing with such issues of national importance.
