For some contries, freedom of press is impossible, you have a mouth but you can not speak the truth. There are alot of innocents who were jailed in Vietnam for speaking the truth, therefore I am so proud of where I am living now.

We have started a positivity movement based around a concept using a visual cue and a notion that people should show up to encourage people/events they care about. We would like your help in spreading the word. We are also looking to start a contest with free prizes and a blogging contract.

Throughout the world, 3 May serves as an occasion to inform the public of violations of the right to freedom of expression and as a reminder that many journalists brave death or jail to bring people their daily news. http://www.healthproductreviewers.com/review-of-acai-max-cleanse.html

The most important thing ---

The preservation of the freedom of the press goes hand-in-hand with journalistic ethics. Aside from reporting on the ever-diminishing (on a global scale) freedom of the press, and the many violations committed worldwide, we should all strive to maintain a sound ethical foundation to our articles and investigations. Freedom does not come without responsibility. That said, more and more people, Americans in particular, are swayed by biased and unethical news programs. Ignorance is reigning. On a GLOBAL scale, press freedoms have slowly been chipped away. [ http://www.csmonitor.com/USA/Foreign-Policy/2010/0429/Press-freedom-falls-around-the-world ]. It's a sad reality. The Society of Professional Journalists has an excellent Code of Ethics [ http://www.spj.org/ethicscode.asp ]. To preserve and protect freedom of the press we all need to hold each other to these standards.

The freedom to express one's ideas is vital to a free society. The ability to share ones thinking is important to ones total being.

Artists can offer insightful observations about society and humanity.

It appears that even in democratic societies such as Australia, individuals in lower socio- economic brackets are disadvantaged and have to work even harder to compete in particular industries such as the creative arts; in an attempt to secure meaningful employment and a fair share of opportunity.I have only recently become aware of World Press Freedom Day. I hope that artists in Australia (and elsewhere) might get behind this project to promote the rights of artists which appear to be eroding in an ever increasing morass of mass media stereotyping of artists, and hyping up of art and visual culture based on youth, and hipster sreet values. Not all artists feel the need nor want to comply with these narrow definitions which prefer to process artists into fashion savvy fame seeking fodder. Bring back appreciation for deeper values and philosophy into the arts. Bring back the community murals which engaged communities and addressed societal issues.Let's get beyond the flash-in-pan reality-TV mediated thinking and support sustainable arts practice.

AT WHAT COST

Mon, 22 Mar 2010 04:03:55 -0500

Read...its good, very healthy if taken and practiced in the direction for which it has meant.. But...at times we are forced to say that.... this freedom.....AT WHAT COST.... We have observed that the end sufferer of this freedom becomes a neutral person, who he is strugling for livelyhood, At times PRESS violates their own limits and then....????? Any one to raise the voice.....no one.... LETS HOPE IT IS PRACTICED WITH A GOOD AND ETHICAL MOMENTUM...

Freedom Was Won

It is very good to know that the awareness of everyone's first ammendment right is being observed. It is to often that we are expected to remain silent and turn our heads becuase the right thing to say is not accepted in society. The Reality Guru http://www.dropmydime.com

I'm glad so many bloggers are adding their voices to this observation. Of course, a few people who submitted their articles here did not even mention it which I find strange...

World Press Freedom Day

Sun, 03 May 2009 10:18:04 -0500

Today is a day where you can really appreciate the people from the previous history who have given you all the rights we use everyday. Being a female, not everyone knows that the law was passed saying that women could vote was in 1920. There was a group of women who fought long and hard against the Goverment called the Women's Peace Party. How many know about the Women's Peace Party? There is only 1 paragraph in the text book I read out of about it. Don't you think getting to vote is a pretty big deal? Then why is there only ONE paragraphy about it in the text books kids learn out of these days. All I am trying to say is if you have a minute today, go on Google and you will find some truly amazing people and facts that you didn't know about. Not a lot of people get credit for what they do, so today is a day we can reflect on their awesome work!

John Milton on Freedom of Expression

Sun, 03 May 2009 08:16:31 -0500

http://janetjarrell.blogspot.com/ In 1644 at the height of the English Civil War, John Milton penned Areopagitica, which is now known as one of history’s first impassioned defences to freedom of expression. Ironically, Milton never delivered this argument verbally, however there was no need, the message was clear; to allow freedom of speech in written form. John Milton may have been more concerned about religion and less with the politics of war; unfortunately, history has seen these two go hand in hand. Thanks to John Milton, and all who followed and fought for the right to freedom of expression. Thank you to all who exercise this right and provide the poetry, novels and the daily news which combined help to map out our history.

The Bogside Artists' Blog

We must support this virtally important cause as it is clear from our own experience that freedom of speech is severely under threat from the legal establishment in particular that seeks to bound and gag all of us into a phobia about speaking our minds. Our run-in with Rowling's solicitors, the notorious Schillings is a case in point that you can find out about from our website; www.bogsideartists.com. Commentary on a book written by William Kelly, one of our group has been effectively stopped directly or indirectly in three newspapers already by Schillings, Rowling's legal reps - The Irish Examiner, The Guardian and The Derry News that was forced to issue an apology for making connections deemed to be false between the book TRAVELS WITH LI PO and the Harry Potter series. Other papers we have approached simply back off for fear of reprisal. It is our view that this sort of bullying is profoundly detrimental to freedom of speech and free artistic expression both of which are enshrined in our constitutions. Or are we all to sit back and lament the passing of the days when great writers such as Shaw and Wilde became great precisely because they could speak their minds freely? This is a cause we must all support. Feel free to comment on this at http://www.thebogsideartists.wordpress.com
