Aminat Rizlene and Cassandra (hostesses): “In a few words, the press is: keeping people informed and informing the population around the world.”
Effy Tselikas (Correspondent for Libรฉration newspaper): “In a few words, the press is: the simplest way to inform the largest number of people to understand the world they live in. It is a means of pressure but not a power.”
Erol Enderoglu (Correspondent for Reporters Without Borders in Turkey): “In a few words, the press is: seeking the truth. There are countries where the media are supported and become a power. A good media does not seek to be a power but to properly inform the public opinion.”
