Today is World Press Freedom Day. What a joke. Julian #Assange is locked up in prison, fighting extradition to America for the crime of free journalism. In his homeland, Australia, low-rent political leaders, and the 'free press', maintain a craven silence. Shame on them.

Today is #WorldPressFreedomDay. Wouldn't it be great if the Coalition and Labor gave an absolute pledge to drop the prosecutions of Bernard Collaery, David McBride and Richard Boyle, and to fight for Julian Assange's freedom. #betterworld #auspol https://t.co/rqmxXLWDFk

Today is World Press Freedom Day & 50 years since I joined the AJA. I'm thinking of those journalists who betray their role by allowing their own views to subvert their reportage & ethics. It's not just politicians who need to protect media freedom, it's journalists https://t.co/02BPkwXTMg

Today is World Press Freedom Day, but it's also the fifth anniversary of journalists at the former Fairfax Media going on strike for a week to defend quality journalism at their mastheads. #MEAAmedia #pressfreedom https://t.co/YTPZS9Q142

Shocking. @vivekagnihotri was to hold a presser at the Foreign Correspondents Club, invites were sent. Then he gets a call telling him the event has been cancelled as many journalists threatened to quit the club. Reminder: Today is Press Freedom Day. https://t.co/Oey6p3SUpZ
