    The Right To Know

    OK you smart-ass journalists...

    Politicians the world over are making life really hard for journalists. I think it's about time journalists turn the table.

    How about journalists just put a complete blanket ban on reporting/interviewing politicians?

    Just stop it completely.

    Politicians rely on teevee and print media to get their message across - screw them!

    Ban them! Ban politics from journalism altogether! Flick 'em! They deserve nothing!

      Every country's biggest problem is politics. In many countries, people who wanted to rule their own people used politics for their own gain. If a journalist says something bad about them, they will try to stop them in many ways. I think there are also some rules about politics.

    WTF?

    Raid Your Own

    In Australia, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (the ABC - where a lot of news is reported)(wholly Australian Government funded) offices were raided by the Australian Federal Police (AFP).

    The AFP also raided a (commercial) newspaper journalist's home at around the same time.

    The information gathered by the AFP from the ABC includes information about informants, secure sources, whistle-blowers! F*ck, man! We're screwed if we let this continue.

    Crikey! Look at Assange. He's f*cked! Agree with him or not - he is NOT getting a fair hearing. FFS!

    You. World! I'm coming after you!
