The Media Reform Commission's report places the highest importance on ensuring press freedom and keeping the media free from all forms of political and corporate influence. The primary goal of the report is to establish an independent 'Media Commission,' which will act not merely as a regulator but as a protective shield for media workers. It recommends the repeal of controversial and repressive legal clauses so that journalists do not face any form of harassment or censorship while uncovering the truth.
Secondly, the report proposes the implementation of a specific salary structure or 'Wage Board' for journalists and ensures job security in the workplace. Alongside creating a strong ethical code of conduct to prevent yellow journalism and fake news, the report prioritizes protecting media rights on digital platforms. Fundamentally, the core philosophy of this reform is to restore the lost glory of the media as the fourth pillar of the state and ensure the people's right to information through the free flow of information.
