One Feature Of Freedom
ONE mark of the free ” society is the liberty of its creative members—its poets, its scientists, its thinkers—to work as uninhibited individuals, toeing no party line, adapting themselves to no kind of necessity beyond the fulfilling of their own gifts. This is what they owe to society. In return, society owes them the means of making themselves heard. We should not be living in a good society if the most gifted of our creative people found themselves shut out from the mass media and were unable to contribute to the great and never-ending public conversation that broadcasting really is.—P. H. Newby, chief of the 8.8. C. Third Programme.
