Journalism can never be silent
Written by a 20-something aspiring political and community journalist, this blog will be filled with little bits and pieces that I find newsworthy with my occassional piece of writing. Inbox me if you have any questions/topics that I should answer/look into.

Every year, May 3rd is a date which celebrates the fundamental principles of press freedom; to evaluate press freedom around the world, to defend the media from attacks on their independence and to pay tribute to journalists who have lost their lives in the exercise of their profession.
Since its proclamation 1993, the worldwide day reminds citizens that there are violations of press freedom in dozens of countries around the world where publications are cnesored, fined, suspended and closed down, while journalists, editors and publishers are harassed, attacked, detained and even murdered.
It is also a day to remember all the journalists who lost their lives in the exercise of their profession. (via)
