FOR CYBER-DISSIDENTS 1. Present govt. propaganda, letting audience decide
2. Stay independent from mainstream media - credibility: gain for mass audiences, loss for loyal audiences - Don't need MSM coverage, web 2.0 self multiplying audience - citizen pressure
FOR WESTERN MEDIA 1. Freedom of expression applied as value, not used as an instrument.
2. Media should not become the political tool of the elite, but rather function for the public's interest.
3. Democracy as a plurality of voices vs. hegemony
