On The Big Fight, we talk about the free press. There are a couple of parameters under which we discuss it, first - government's crackdown on the press, secondly the safety of journalists - which is a cause of worry and finally, the need for media to introspect on the quality of news. Why is there an erosion? It should be a fundamental feature of our democracy to be committed to the freedom of press. Free journalism, accurate journalism and journalism that operates without fear from anybody.
