Robert Scheer“The Iraqi Free Press, which did not exist 18 months ago because there was no such thing as the Iraqi Free Press, broke a story about the U.N. Oil-for-Food scandal, which could potentially turn out to be the largest scandal in history.”

Ferdinand Mount“Without free speech one cannot claim other liberties, or defend them when they are attacked. Without free speech one cannot have a democratic process, which requires the statement and testing of policy proposals and party platforms. Without free speech one cannot have a due process at law, in which one can defend oneself, accuse, collect and examine evidence, make a case or refute one. Without free speech there cannot be genuine education and research, enquiry, debate, exchange of information, challenges to falsehood, questioning of governments, proposal and examination of opinion. Without free speech there cannot be a free press, which...is necessary...as one of the two essential estates of a free society (the other being an independent judiciary).”

And you already have one real information: You are being deceived by the people you are governed! This is an enough information for you!”

Morrissey“The Founding Fathers gave the free press the protection it must have to bare the secrets of government and inform the people.”
Hugo Black“A free press can, of course, be good or bad, but, most certainly without freedom, the press will never be anything but bad.”
