Doha Centre for Media Freedom has been coming out with bold statements which previously were unheard of in the region. A very positive sign. I am not sure how long they will do that. If they are allowed to do that then there is nothing better than that as far as freedom of speech is concerned. But when will the local media wake up to this new status. Will they ever go beyond the official statements issued by the government bodies in Qatar? Do they have it in them? I doubt.
