World Press Freedom Day


World Press Freedom Day








"United Nations General Assembly declared May 3 to be World Press Freedom Day (or just World Press Day) to raise awareness of the importance of freedom of the press and remind governments of their duty to respect and uphold the right to freedom of expression enshrined under Article 19 of the 1948 Universal Declaration of Human Rights and marking the anniversary of the Declaration of Windhoek, a statement of free press principles put together by African newspaper journalists in 1991."

COMMENT
So much for World Press Day and all those noble UN declarations when journalist and whistleblower publisher, Julian Assange of WikiLeaks, has been denied liberty for over 4 years without charge.
