News should be reported impartially where all sides of the stories should be reported.
In articles, you may present facts and analysis supporting your point of view and it is up to the people to take it ot leave it.
This is how journalism should be practiced in my opinion.
However, if you reported News, even impartially, without presenting critical information or other sides of the story, then it is called lying be omission which is not good for press freedom which is too bad. This is where most of the damage is done.
There is no press freedom in the world.
The problem I see is that when certain countries accuse other countries of not having press freedom especially when it comes from the west.
George Bush & Tony Blair are suspected to conspire over bombing Al-Jazeera's office in Baghdad, as an example of those countries promoting democracy and liberty.
One of the big problems is shedding lights in some countries while avoiding others.
Another example, France, Germany, Australia, to name a few, consider denying the holocaust against the law!! where is the press freedom here??
To give my opinion about the DCMF..I hope they leave Doha and not return forever. I would have changed my opinion had there been signs of true and sincere efforts to promote peace and justice at the international level.
However, having no trust and no credibility for the west given the bad record for the last 10 years, explains many things.
Propaganda exists everywhere you go...
