    @doc let's say dominated, Axel Springer SE does not control all the press in Germany, but it's able to set the talking points and draw public attention to where they want it to be.

    (… not to mention our dysfunctional public broadcast …)

      Let the truth be told, let the press be free. 📰

      Journalists give voice to the voiceless, hold power to account, and keep citizens informed often at great personal risk.

      Too many face intimidation, censorship, and violence simply for doing their job.

      This World Press Freedom Day, we reaffirm our commitment to protecting journalists and defending independent media.

      Because free press is the foundation of democracy.

                        @Lykkerik @EUCommission it's exactly how sanctions are supposed work, they're not at all a "punishment" in the sense that convictions in the justice system are.

                        That's not to say they cannot be challenged legally after the fact of course if there's any real basis to do it. In this case it sounds like there may not really be.

                              @ikuturso @EUCommission So, to avoid the annoying legal principle that you're innocent until proven guilty, we use sanctions because sanctions (blocking an individual and his family's existence) is not punishment. Sounds alarmingly antidemocratic to me.

                                @Lykkerik @EUCommission well, if we started seeing cases where state actors weren't really involved and the connection to foreign policy was not really defensible I'd agree it would be worrying.

                                  @ikuturso @EUCommission Either you believe in the basic legal principle that everyone's innocent until proven guilty, or you don't. Has he been tried and found guilty of committing a crime, or not? What follows that sort of legal understanding is also this: https://www.icc-cpi.int/news/icc-strongly-rejects-new-us-sanctions-against-judges-and-deputy-prosecutors

                                      @EUCommission Except when the truth is mildly inconvenient to those in power or those with wealth. Then the truth will be muted and reporters will lose funding.

                                        Let the truth be told, let the press be free. 📰

                                        Journalists give voice to the voiceless, hold power to account, and keep citizens informed often at great personal risk.

                                        Too many face intimidation, censorship, and violence simply for doing their job.

                                        This World Press Freedom Day, we reaffirm our commitment to protecting journalists and defending independent media.

                                        Because free press is the foundation of democracy.

                                        @EUCommission the why not pressure #israel more about killing #journalists. About not letting #journalists into #gaza?
