“In a representative democracy, the media is in a unique position to shine a light on those with power and how they wield it. Without a free press we likely would not have learned about the crimes of Watergate or the flawed decision-making central to the Vietnam War. As Thomas Jefferson famously put it, "Were it left to me to decide whether we should have a government without newspapers or newspapers without a government, I should not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter.”
