I was thinking about the Ecuador´s new law of communication, I´m studding journalism and I am very worried about the changes that are going to be part of my work. I don´t want to work by pressure, if I say something the government don´t accept I will have a punishment. why?
When something is forbidden it’s because there will be a punishment, the law wants to create an institution that is going to “regulate and punish” the medias. Do we really want to work with frighten?, where is my freedom to say and investigate things? Is it democracy? If most of the communication channels are from the government, how can we investigate with freedom, whit no punishment?
There must be changes, but these have to improve the journalism, the investigation, not to go back in the time of no freedom of speech, we have to look the reality whith critic eyes, not to be sleeping and accept all that is imposed to us.
