MANAGEMENT of Hits and Jams (HJ) Entertainment has reportedly instructed its staff, via a memo, to desist from political commentary on its radio and television programmes.
The reason given in the memo was that the ban is in an “effort to guard” the company against any “political affiliation”, given the current political climate.
Additionally, all calls made to HJ TV and HJ Radio have been subject to screening before they are aired. “We must protect our investment,” the November 11 memo said.
HJ Radio was launched in 2013 and its television broadcasts followed soon after.
Hits and Jams Entertainment is an established entertainment entity in Guyana and has been in existence for over a decade. It aims to provide high quality entertainment in the form of promotional events, concept parties, concerts and other social affairs.
