Some will stand and fight for free speech.

Keith Windschuttle, (who destroyed the “Stolen Generations” myth):
‘..The recommendation by Ray Finkelstein that the Gillard government establish a news media regulatory body is not only the most serious assault yet proposed on press freedom in this country … —it would elevate to a position of power the one group of people most jealous of and hostile towards the news media: university academics in media studies and journalism.
…If his oppressive scheme is ever implemented, we would feel compelled to defend the long tradition of press freedom by engaging in civil disobedience. While ever I am editor, Quadrant would not recognise the News Media Council’s authority, we would not observe its restrictions, and we would not obey its instructions, whatever the price. We hope other publishers will take a similar stand.’
Bravo!  The words of a principled and courageous man.
