Freedom of Press

Freedom of the press is a fundamental human right that allows media to report news and express opinions without government interference. It is essential for democracy, ensuring that citizens are informed about important issues, can challenge authority, and hold power accountable. This freedom supports the exchange of diverse ideas and helps protect other rights by promoting transparency and public debate. When the press is free, society can better combat corruption, defend human rights, and foster an open dialogue, contributing to a more informed and engaged population.
