  Our right; reporters, bloggers and citizens
"Consider, for example, an early draft of the journalist's favorite provision offered to the Constitutional Convention by James Madison: 'The people shall not be deprived or abridged of their right to speak, to write, or to publish their sentiments, and the freedom of the press, as one of the great bulwarks of liberty, shall be inviolable'."
The doors of access to government have been thrown open with the growth of the Internet. We should not underestimate the value of the strength of news organizations in standing up to the power of government nor should we undervalue their stewardship of our right, which they have exercised with some discretion historically.
