Assignment 1: Journalism and Writing Quotes

Choose one of the following quotes and write a brief paragraph explaining it and giving your opinion about it:

"Were it left to me to decide whether to have government without newspapers, or newspapers without government, I should not hesitate to
prefer the latter."
-- Thomas Jefferson

The power of a newspaper is priceless they can give power or take it from a government that is the why a government can survive without newspaper because nobody would critic they way of doing the things and the population would be in the dark without news, but is forgiven to have government and not a newspaper that should make all the government compared to god and nothing could ever change and the persons were going to be slaves of the system, but the newspaper is gone to have more power that any government is the last barrier against ignorance the fight would never end because the two have power and are in a competition that the price is the power over the society.
In my opinion that quote is true everyone can always choose , but their decision only can be make with information that is the only ways of the people to make things and think out of the box.
