Free Press.
It should not be banned. The free press is an essential part of democracy.
A free and open press is important to a democracy because it serves as a check on government power, provides public accountability, and encourages informed citizen participation. It helps to expose corruption, hold leaders accountable, and ensures the dissemination of diverse and reliable information to citizens, allowing them to make informed decisions. The press also promotes transparency and provides a platform for diverse voices and opinions to be heard.
A free press is very important in a democracy. The public needs to know the various things that are going on in government and investigators keep politicians honest by the investigation of stories and rumors. Without the efforts of investigation of the Watergate break in Nixon would have gotten away with his sending the men into the democratic offices.
Consider the opposite of a free press, when a single entity decides what information may be released in written form. This is a necessary feature of any autocracy, dictatorship or oligarchy. Conversely, freedom of the press (and speech and the Internet, even to the point of the permissibility of printing lies, is a necessary condition for a working democracy.
If you don't have people who can think for themselves, there is no point in having a democracy. Democracy depends on having people who can think for themselves rather than believing..
Because They are the most important of all our freedoms.
