Donald Trump as president 'would be a threat to press freedom'
This article talks about the comments trump has made reguarding several media institutions and singleing out some journalists to insult them. All of this points towards that if trump were to win the election then he could end up limitting the power of the media and what the journalist was worried about was that if other countries follow suit and limit the power of their media institutions.
I believe that this could be a possibility but its completly unethical to limit the press as this would most likely ocurr in the form of censorship. Because of things like investigative journalism corruption and other political scandals are revealed like the watergate scandal and with someone like trump in office this would be an important mean of scrutiny however if this were to be limitted then there would be a problem.
