Yes there is. Free press is a right guaranteed by the Constitution. Newspapers can print anything that is true. Responsible press is not printing things that might seriously damage a person's reputation or hinder a police investigation.

Answer 2

There are major differences between a free press and a responsible press. To make this clearer, all news media, and other media, such as entertainment and political analysis are part of a free press. In a society that allows a free press, a wide variety of ideas, true or untrue are allowed with the exception of liable and calls for a violent revolution. Generally speaking, this same society is better off with a responsible free press. This allows all media the same privileges as the latter description, and publishes information that is honest. This responsible free press can express opposing and or differing views on politics, the arts and even other news media. The difference is that honesty is held to a high degree.
