Paul Sethe on Freedom of the Press – The Truth Everyone Should Know!
“”Freedom of the press is the freedom of two hundred rich people to spread their opinions. As the production of newspapers and magazines requires ever greater capital, the circle of people who publish press organs is becoming smaller and smaller. This makes our dependence ever greater and ever more dangerous. There are oases in the German press where the air of freedom still blows, but how many of my colleagues can say the same? Those who are rich are free. That’s not from Karl Marx, but from Paul Sethe. Since journalists are not rich, they are not free either.””
