> not depending on another for livelihood or subsistence Unless your journalists are hunter-gatherers living in the woods, they depend on someone for subsistence. Even if it is just their readers. But probably also their editor, boss, colleagues, government, philanthropic donors, etc. We all live in a society, we all depend on the people around us. And we all deserve the human right to free expression. If bad people don't get human rights, then the whole concept of human rights is meaningless.
