Abstract
In the context of human rights, freedom of expression is often emphasized but the major source of expression comes from journalism efforts. Yet, news media and journalists’ expression continues to be constantly threatened. Reporters san Frontieres (RSF) is an organization that is designed to fight and uphold the rights of free press. However, we argue that RSF operations have been ineffective. In this paper, we propose a new organization called Press for the People (PFP) to address the shortcomings of RSF. An analysis of this new organization will be discussed using the VMCL approach as detailed in Flock Not Clock written by Derek and Laura Cabrera. Plectica was also used to outline our thoughts.
