Freedom of the Press (report)

The Freedom of the Press (report) involves the right of journalists and other media outlets (such as newspapers, magazines, radio and television) to gather information, share it with the public and report the truth. This is important because it helps citizens stay informed and make informed decisions, and also helps hold government leaders accountable. It lets people know what is true and what isn't. It helps people stay informed about their rights and how to protect them.
