World Editors Caution UK On Press Regulation
- Press Gazette, Monday, March 17, 2014 4:35 PM
The first ever World Association of Newspapers press freedom mission to the UK has urged the Government to back away from any further involvement in regulation of the press. In a report published Monday, it warned that statutory involvement in UK press regulation could have a stifling effect on press freedom worldwide. And it also express solidarity with The Guardian which has been subject to government threats over its reporting of surveillance based on the leaked Edward Snowden documents.
