Mass media must exercise press freedom responsibly: PM

Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra told the World Newspaper Congress in Bangkok Tuesday the mass media must exercise press freedom responsibly.

“Freedom without responsibility can lead to confusion and even turmoil,” the prime minister said.
She pointed out that on the Internet, when damage has been done, “it is impossible to reverse the damage”.
“Freedom is not unlimited even in an advanced democracy,” said the premier, during a key address at Centara Grand Hotel, citing such issues as national security.
