lpv:translated text	"First and foremost, I applaud the fact that this debate is happening at all. As the situation stands in many countries of the European Union, there may be freedom of expression and press freedom, but in reality, there are many shortcomings. This is because power has a tendency to make itself felt in this area. In the Czech Republic, we have the so-called muzzling act, which makes it impossible to publish information that is disagreeable to politicians, and threatens journalists with harsh punishments, including imprisonment. No other country in Europe has a similar pseudo-democratic legal measure, even though a number of them share the same tendencies. Freedom of expression is also considerably affected by the financial situation of those who work in the media. Whoever has money has power and also influence in the media. The views of the dispossessed are often deliberately ignored. I am not an idealist, and one debate will not put everything right, but the more often we return to this topic, the closer we will get to genuine democracy."@en1
