I Support ‘Slay Queen’ Journalism – Bridget Otoo
Broadcast journalist, Bridget Otoo says female journalists must put efforts into looking good.
Speaking on GhanawebTV she said media houses must bear the cost of the outlook of their female presenters because people are judged based on that.
“Slay queen journalism means a woman who cares about how she looks. Once you look good, sit before somebody which you want to interview and ask them great questions, now if we were in an ideal country, the station is supposed to give you clothes, do your hair for you, make up because they are putting you in front of a camera to go ask questions but they don’t.
“Now you have put in the effort to get that done for yourself and you are being judged for simply looking good and in any case if you read the psychology behind it, a lot of the people say these things want to be like the person they are insulting anyway. So it’s a complex issue, a psychological issue and a madness issue. They (social media bullies) just do it because it makes them feel good.”
