Freedom of Information (Amendment) Bill 2012: Discussion
10:45 am

That is what journalism is supposed to be about, where one brings about a synthesis of the information with as many points of view as one can get one's hands on but tries to ensure that everybody has been given ample opportunity to reply, either in a statement or, in the case of broadcasting, in their presence. That is what the job is supposed to be about.
