Snowden spreekt eindelijk over 11 september 2001

Sinds 11 september 2001 durft de 'vrije' pers de overheid niet meer te confronteren met al haar excessen.


NY Times - Q. & A.: Edward Snowden Speaks to Peter Maass
13 augustus 2013

Edward Snowden: After 9/11, many of the most important news outlets in America abdicated their role as a check to power — the journalistic responsibility to challenge the excesses of government — for fear of being seen as unpatriotic and punished in the market during a period of heightened nationalism. From a business perspective, this was the obvious strategy, but what benefited the institutions ended up costing the public dearly. The major outlets are still only beginning to recover from this cold period.

Snowden also shot out a warning to investigative journalists who do not encrypt their communications.

“I was surprised to realize that there were people in news organizations who didn’t recognize any unencrypted message sent over the Internet is being delivered to every intelligence service in the world. In the wake of this year’s disclosures, it should be clear that unencrypted journalist-source communication is unforgivably reckless.”
