Do We Have To Restrict Our Press?

Situation 1.
PM said govt to publish to the public all corruption cases which have been proven innocent to avoid suspicion. But then we have lost count of those corruption cases, which of them are proven guilty and why are they not published. In fact the public has never known how many corruption cases there are kept in the freezer to suddenly know only that are innocent.

Situation 2.
Noritta's mother switches off her TV to avoid listening the painful news about her daughter, but the father reads daily newspaper in seclusion in his orchard to learn the truth and keeps progress on her daughter's trial. None of them complained about media exploitation instead they accept the fact that truth is a bitter pill to swallow. To all of us who follow this case our symphathy is with Noritta's parents whom we see are one brave parents who have the courage to withstand the most painful time of their life.

Situation 3.
The Minister who made the suggestion to blackout news on court trials and others who voiced out strongly in support of the suggestion, none of them is doing things like going to comfort the victim's parents or at least visit them or give them some courage to endure the grief to wade through the troubled water. Which part of the court trial can be hidden from public knowledge and how would the media report a court case in their dailies? Will it looks like this?:

NORITTA MURDER TRIAL - Day 20, lawyers are still very much in cross-examination of Witness No. 44. All proceedings in camera. Stay tuned.

Situation 4.
When Astro was criticised for violence shows and fees increase there was one minister who was so quick to make remark against the popular voice calling for stern action, and said that government has no jurisdiction to take sanction on Astro. Somebody please tell these ministers that Astro's and major newspapers' owners are all their cronies that they happened to use their immunity to make use of opportunities to feed their big bellies too.

And yeah, If the parents of Norrita feel that these newspapers have unfairly sensationalized the trial and defamed their family in anyway, they have every right to take the papers to the courts and sue them. Right mate?
