has freedom of press in today's world led to the infringement of personal privacy?

Answer 1

That's ridiculous. It allows readers to know what's going on in their world, the good and the bad. It expands their horizons, not limits them.

Answer 2

Depends on whether or not you're being investigated for something. I think freedom of the press actually helps keep people informed of the nefarious changes executive orders etc have on privacy or other things like the US Patriiot Acts one and two. Journalists let you know when governments, businesses, con men are out to ' take ' you or infringe on the public's rights as a whole, rather than an individual's rights. It's the public's right to know vs the individual's right to hide something or keep secrets especially if it affects the public moreso than it does an individual.

Answer 3

Of course it has and the more people are willing to pay for it, the more dirt the media will dig up on you. This is simply supply and demand. You want to know all the details and that's what they get it for you. So long as there are people out there who want to know, there will always be someone invading your privacy. Thank you.

Answer 4

The press is bound by rules specially when they can't give us the information on young offenders so we can protect ourselves from them.

freedom of press to destroy a religious faith by half truth,untruth,lies and damn lies,
