Back when BN ruled, the government blocked Medium (which was reporting the 1MDB case), proposed "fake news" laws to silence people on social media. Govt parties owned majority share in all newspapers. They erased images from newspapers like party flags or KLCC. After Anwar's party took over, one of the first things they did was remove the ban on Medium and the "fake news" laws. They did cut funding to newspapers (which probably a revenge policy). But we're making lots of progress in this space.
