Popular Ghanaian media personality Ato Kwamena has lashed out at TV3 Ghana, accusing the media house of abandoning the very principles it once stood for. In a bold and direct social media post, Ato did not hold back his disappointment, describing the station as biased and unprofessional.
“There was a time in our history that this symbol stood for clarity and fairness. Now, this same symbol has thrown its principles to the dogs,” he stated, tagging TV3 Ghana’s official handle, @tv3_ghana.
His statement has triggered widespread discussions online, with many Ghanaians echoing similar sentiments about the current state of mainstream media in the country. According to Ato, the credibility and fairness that once defined TV3’s journalism are now in question.
“You are biased and your journalists seem unprofessional. Accept it and do better,” he added bluntly.
Though he did not cite specific incidents, the post has been interpreted as a reaction to TV3’s recent coverage of political and social issues, which some critics believe is skewed and lacking balance. Many netizens have since joined the conversation, praising Ato for speaking out and calling for greater accountability in the media space.
Others, however, have defended the network, suggesting that Ato’s comments may have been driven by personal bias or frustration over a particular report.
This isn’t the first time TV3 has come under public scrutiny. Over the past few years, the station has faced several accusations of biased reporting, especially during election periods and major national debates. While the management of TV3 has on various occasions reaffirmed their commitment to fair and balanced journalism, the backlash from influential voices like Ato Kwamena paints a different picture.
Media experts have also weighed in, noting that with growing citizen awareness and social media influence, traditional media houses must strive harder to maintain credibility and neutrality. In today’s digital age, one misstep can cost a brand its trust and following.
As the dust settles, Ghanaians are watching closely to see how TV3 responds—whether they will address the concerns or ignore them altogether.
