US ambassador to Bangladesh Earl Miller on Thursday said journalists should be free to pursue the truth without fear of censorship, harassment, or arrest as they perform this life-saving service.
"You are all genuine heroes. I love how health workers are publicly applauded in many countries. They should be, and so should journalists, everywhere. You deserve our immense gratitude," he said while delivering his speech at a virtual launching ceremony for 'Online COVID-19 Course for Doctors.'
The US ambassador said they honour all journalists, everywhere, who have sacrificed their lives, freedom and personal well-being in pursuit of truth and justice.
