Yep. In America anyway, the 1st amendment is there so that our press CAN get secret information and show it to the public if it's in the public interest. So in fact we do hold the press in a more trustworthy light than the government. It's basically foundational to our democracy. State run media was one of the reasons the USSR was ALWAYS said to be evil when I was a child. That was what "the commies" did. Oversaw every story and killed any story that made them look bad or corrupt. Our free press is the thing that makes us better than them. Right?
