Ten things to think about this week, during National Newspaper Week.

Freedom of the press doesn’t mean the news is free.

The price is not having it.

Don’t take freedom of the press for granted.

The fourth estate has changed the world for the good.

And it’s not over. We’ve got to cover climate change, strikes … and more.
