•Lord Donaldson (Master of the Rolls) in the Spycatcher case

•A free press is an essential element in maintaining parliamentary democracy and the British way of life as we know it. But it is important to know why the press occupies this crucial position. It is not because of any special wisdom, interest or status enjoyed by the proprietors, editors or journalists. It is because the media are the eyes and ears of the general public. They act on behalf of the general public. Their right to know and their right to publish is neither more nor less than that of the public. Indeed it is that of the general public for whom they are trustees.

Press as watchdog

Page 14: The journalist writes the story, and submits it to the editor. The newspaper prints it as a front page splash. Simultaneously as the newspaper is published,

•Lord Bingham (2000)

•In a modern developed society it is only a small minority of citizens who can participate directly in the discussions and decisions which shape the public life of that society. The majority can participate only indirectly, by exercising their rights as citizens to vote, express their opinions, make representations to the authorities, form pressure groups and so on.

•But the majority cannot participate in the public life of their society in these ways if they are not alerted to and informed about matters which call or may call for consideration and action. It is largely through the media, including of course the press, that they will be so alerted and informed. The proper functioning of a modern participatory democracy requires that the media be free, active, professional and inquiring.

Fourth Estate

Page 15: The journalist writes the story, and submits it to the editor. The newspaper prints it as a front page splash. Simultaneously as the newspaper is published,

•Protection of journalistic sources is one of the basic conditions for press freedom..... Without such protection, sources may be deterred from assisting the press and informing the public on matters of public interest. The vital public watchdog role of the press may be undermined ...such a measure cannot be compatible with Article 10 of the Convention unless it is justified by an overriding requirement of public interest..

I think contempt laws can work perfectly well. It was never the object of contempt laws that it was going to stop every piece of tittle tattle round a dinner table or in a pub.

"This John Terry saga, has turned into one of the most hideously managed spectacles I have ever known. WTF is going on...... We all know what was said. Its there on TV for all to see. Do I think hes a racist? No. I think hes said something really stupid in the heat of battle/argument. This should of been dealt with instantly (Like Suarez or more games) and put to bed.The longer it goes on, the worse it is for the game. Racism needs to be stamped out. We all agree on that. This is now affecting England as well as those involved. I dont a f*cking man and took his punishment for what he said. This is now helping nobody. The one I feel for is Anton, hes done nowt wrong and has.Once the issue went out of the FA's control, it was always going to get messy. They should have dealt with it instantly. Now its a farce..Should of thrown his hands up and admitted his grave error. Excepted his deserved disciplinary action and let everyone move on.Whose the winner in all of this? I cant think of anyone....can you? What a debacle its turned into. Sad state of affairs. Heads should roll.I am fuming for my teammate Stan. For 6 months, he has to carry on dealing with this situation when hes done nothing wrong""I'll probably get a letter now from "the powers that be." If you're reading this don't bother........."

Our goal is to instantly connect people everywhere to what is most meaningful to them. For this to happen, freedom of expression is essential. Some Tweets may facilitate positive change in a repressed country, some make us laugh, some make us think, some downright anger a vast majority of users. We don't always agree with the things people choose to tweet, but we keep the information flowing irrespective of any view we may have about the content.

 The open exchange of information can have a positive global impact. This is both a practical and ethical belief. On a practical level, we simply cannot review all one hundred million-plus Tweets created and subsequently delivered every day. From an ethical perspective, almost every country in the world agrees that freedom of expression is a human right. Many countries also agree that freedom of expression carries with it responsibilities and has limits.

 At Twitter, we have identified our own responsibilities and limits. There are Tweets that we do remove, such as illegal Tweets and spam. However, we make efforts to keep these exceptions narrow so they may serve to prove a broader and more important rule—we strive not to remove Tweets on the basis of their content. For more on what we allow and what we don’t, 

  

Message from Twitter

Page 23: The journalist writes the story, and submits it to the editor. The newspaper prints it as a front page splash. Simultaneously as the newspaper is published,

Our position on freedom of expression carries with it a mandate to protect our users' right to speak freely and preserve their ability to contest having their private information revealed. While we may need to release information as required by law, we try to notify Twitter users before handing over their information whenever we can so they have a fair chance to fight the request if they so choose.

 We continue to work towards further transparency when we remove Tweets for legal reasons. We submit all copyright removal notices to @chillingeffects and they are now Tweeting them from @ChillFirehose. We will continue to increase our transparency in this area and encourage you to let us know if you think we have not met our aspirations with regard to your freedom of expression.

 Discussion on topics from geopolitical events to wardrobe malfunctions make Twitter both important and fun. Providing the tools that foster these discussions and following the policies that keep them alive is meaningful work for us. If you are interested in this topic, we encourage you to follow the accounts collected @twitter/freedom-of-expression or better yet, come work with us.

England failed in its World Cup Bid. The bid went to Qatar. Deeply controversial. England were promised votes that never materialised. Corruption is suspected.

You have researched it, and have been offered an interview with one of the committee who voted, and has now retired. He will spill the beans on the corrupt system, and name names, he says. But he wants £1,000 for the interview. Should you proceed?

The Olympics is underway in London. There have been some very surprising results. An unknown Chinese sprinter won the 200 metres final.

Tomorrow it’s the 100 m final.

You and a colleague have set up a meeting with the Jamaican favourite for the race. You have spoken to him by phone, and claimed to be a member of an Arab betting syndicate. You are to meet him in a hotel, where you will pay him £100,000 if he agrees to let someone else win the race.

You will secretly record the meeting.

Are you right to do this?
