What is 'Parachute Journalism' often criticized for ?
Answer: B
It is criticised for sending reporters to cover stories in areas where they have little local knowledge.
In parachute journalism a reporter is dropped into a crisis or distant place, files quickly and leaves. Critics say this produces shallow, stereotyped coverage that misses context, language and local sources.
In-depth local coverage and long-term assignments are the opposite of the practice, and its usual fault is haste rather than being over-cautious with sensitive issues.
