"Freedom of press is more than just the freedom of publishers and editors. It is the freedom of society to have its voice heard. The exercise of this freedom does require a 'journalism of courage.' It also requires a journalism of honesty and integrity. A journalism of toil and hard work. I also believe that a 'journalism of courage' is not just about giving voice to those who are willing to shout, but it is about giving voice to the voiceless and to those who choose to be silent." Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh |
