liberal

I daresay that the world liberal still exist, but, in an entirely low and close to extinction. The journalists who work in the media still can project their views and thoughts, but this days the people that express it without repression are very fortunate, because the authorities are hanging with the things that they tell about something that slightly related to the goverment.

The Goverment now aims to silence the media that oppose their ideas, being docile objects against the insults and aggressions in the National chain on Saturdays.

The power struggle that the media have with the tyran goverment is enormous, because, the goverment going to destroys the democratic capacity to propagate true information.

Liberal of speech still exist, but, the moment when the "Asamblea Nacional" approves the Communication Laws, the journalists and people that we study communication in the future, we will not be able to say anything.

The positive and negative potential that has this word is huge. The political scene in which we live is teaching us that we have the uncertain future of social communicators and the general public regarding the freedom to express ourselves.

The press liberty means that all people have the right to express themselves without being hassld and bothered abouth thir opinions. This liberty is the freedom of research, receive and impart information withouth limitation through any means, withouth the slightest intention of being silent or silenced. Simply, press liberty is founded on liberty of opinion. The jounalists and the media freedom have the power to express themselves, wheter their thoughts or make unrestricted events and daily events that happen in a nation.

Well, that liberty of press and journalists are free to provide information, they are absolutely forced to do so with clarity and transparency, truth and conscience.

Ecuador has enjoyed extensive media liberty, comprehensive in every sense, however, it has turned threantened and nearly killed by the Goverment.
