Are the new press going to be limited to social issues? Will it be able to affect economic policy? Dare we dream even foreign policy? To be critical you need to have access, and when you don't have access all you can do is make assumptions. Feeling marginalized has become second nature to us jordanians, sometimes I feel that people fear getting involoved so that they don't have to bare the consequences.

Murrow. If only Jordan had one... No where in this piece do I ask for anyone's permission to do this. We build a new press and the people will realize that the better coverage comes from the independent. I'm not asking anyone's permission to do this, we're just going to do it. Come help. Edward R. Murrow. If only Jordan had one…
