New from Ethos Press, in Singapore, Troublemaker is a collection of
journalist and blogger Bertha Henson’s columns. They represent her take on the
news of the day, spanning political and social happenings in Singapore from the
middle of 2012. Sometimes serious, sometimes hilarious, Bertha brings a questioning eye to news commentary, zooming in on issues
that provoke controversy.
About the Author
Bertha Henson worked in the Singapore Press Holdings
(SPH) stable of newspapers for 26 years, finally as Associate Editor of The Straits Times, Singapore’s national
English-language broadsheet. In 2012, she left the organisation to start her
own media consultancy,
Newsmakers, and to teach at the National University
of Singapore. She started her blog, Bertha Harian (Bertha's Daily) the day after she left
SPH, and launched Breakfast Network,
a semi‐professional news and views
website with friends and undergraduates in early 2013. The website closed at the end of the year because she and fellow editors declined to meet registration
requirements then newly-imposed by Singapore’s Media Development Authority.
