“Journalism can only be meaningful if it takes place in a democratic society that
respects human rights and that cultivates diversity and differences of opinion. In
defense of these issues, it should be emphasized that the journalist is never neutral or
impartial, but is always a militant.” (BUCCI, 2000:49)
