The free spread of information is what’s needed back in your own country. not here.

In Japan there is not the job market of over 35 years old worker.Therefore, the Japanese Press worker cannot resist their belonging campany.
The freedom of speech in Japan is very close to a crisis by that reason.

I think that reason is not only for professinal writers but also for citizen writers.
Japanese citizen is wondering now. If I write, I would surffer someting bad.
When Ohmynews does not give the supports to write freely, they will not be success.

I think, if you are the one of stakeholders, you cannot say anything coolly, intelligently.
There is no exceptions. Press media men, business people, NGO/NPO activist, citizen writers …etc.
The freedom of speech is so difficult for everyone.
