Introduction
The press plays a significant and vital role within every
country by the delivery of relevant news and information to the
general public, and also by performing research in critical
matters. The media thus conducts the activity of bringing
activities and reports to the forefront that would otherwise go
unnoticed and uninvestigated.
Performing activities such as these can, on occasion, give rise
to concerns on the part of the reporters with regards to their
rights and freedoms; this is an issue that the law is always trying
to solve due to the importance of freedom of the press.
The News Media Association (NMA) is one of the crucial entities
that is looking out for and fighting for the rights of press
freedom; and recently, a new bill has received significant backing
to improve the overall conditions further.
