I am not a journalist
. It is clear to me that all expression rights enjoy equal protection as press freedom. Nonetheles
s, I think the journalist profession deserves much respect, and that many journalist
s will be interested in this article at the Huff. We have heard so many examples of media censorship by corporatis
ts like Murdoch.
I sometimes worry that the journalist
ic credential
s of Wikileaks and Assange are overplayed
. Yes, it is true that every website deserves press freedom, but over-empha
sis of journalist
ic freedom diminuates the fact that we all enjoy the same expression rights that journalist
s have. Assange does not need any special journalist
ic mantle to provide a shelter for what he has done, which should receive many praises.
