BAHAMAS CHRONICLE EDITOR’S NOTE: I absolutely had to share this post b The ZNS Network with readers of my Washington, D.C. – based online publication, BAHAMAS CHRONICLE, which has a huge following among the Bahamian diaspora across the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom as well as in The Bahamas and the wider Caribbean.
I would also like to extend my congratulations to Fern, who is equally as proficient in print journalism as she is as a broadcast journalist. Prior to joining ZNS, Fern demonstrated her excellent journalistic skills at The Nassau Guardian when I was editor of that newspaper from 1998 to 2002
