Corruption and press freedom

Posted on by

That press freedom is a nemesis of corruption is self-evident. Even then, two recent assessments of the two civic entities provide intriguing insight into their interface.

One report is the 2013 index of press freedom issued by Reporters Without Borders. The other is a stinging report about the scope of corruption in the countries that constitute the European Union.

According to the report, Corruption alone is estimated to cost the EU economy EUR 120 billion per year, just a little less than the annual budget of the European Union.

In a press conference announcing the report, Cecilia Malmstrm, the EU Commissioner for Home Affairs, reflected on the implications in terms usually associated with African and other developing countries.

Corruption erodes trust in public institutions and in democracy, it undermines our internal market, it hampers foreign investment, it costs taxpayers millions, and in many cases it helps organised crime groups do their dirty work, Malmstrm said.

Malmstrm additionally cited a survey by Eurobarometer that found that 76 per cent of Europeans believe that corruption is widespread in their respective countries.

One in 12 Europeans has experienced or witnessed corruption in the last 12 months, and four out of 10 European companies consider corruption to be an obstacle for doing business within the EU, Malmstrm said.

For Westernpundits who comment condescendingly on others corruption as though there is something genetic about it, the EU report calls for attitude adjustment.

However, apologists of Nigerias corruption shouldnt find too much of a vindication either. While the report clearly indicates that corruption is not exclusive to any region of the world, it also makes clear that its prevalence is a relative matter. And its containment requires persistent pressure and vigilance from all, including the press.

In noting the significance of the EU corruption report, Malmstrm said: This is all the more worrying in times of economic and financial crisis. In order to pull Europe from the brink of the crisis, we need to attack corruption effectively by pulling efforts from all sides.The report will hopefully provide everyone politicians, the public, media and practitioners with a useful tool for taking national corruption policy forward.

'Cyborg' headed to 135, plans to retire Ronda Rousey 'like I did Gina Carano'

Posted on by

Since UFC womens bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey apparently wont meet her at any other weight, Cristiane Justino said shes making the drop from 145 pounds to 135 in hopes for a December fight.

Cyborg made the announcement via a prepared statement on Fridays edition of Inside MMA on AXS TV.

The statement followed recent comments by UFC President Dana White that criticized Justino as a user of performance-enhancing drugs (she flunked a test in 2011 due to an anabolic steroid). However, Justino, Invicta FCs reigning featherweight titleholder, said she planned to add the organizations bantamweight strap to her collection before moving to 135 pounds and retiring Rousey like I did Gina Carano, who quit fighting in 2009 after a title loss to Cyborg.

In fact, Justino (12-1 MMA, 0-0 UFC) said shes open to a winner-takes-all bout or they can even fight for free. She simply implored Rousey (8-0 MMA, 2-0 UFC) to ask your daddy Dana to make it happen.

The full statement:

In reference to Rondas statement that I am looking for a payday so that I can retire, youre right, I am looking for a payday to retire you like I did Gina Carano. But to show its not only about money, I challenge you to a fight winner takes all. Or better yet lets fight for FREE. ANYTIME! ANYWHERE! Ask your daddy Dana to make it happen.

My English is not that great, so sorry if I was misunderstood. I didnt literally mean I would die if I made 135. What I meant was that my doctor recommended that I did not fight the rest of my career at 135, which is what the UFC wanted.

You have fought 154 in the Olympics and 145 in MMA. You can meet me at 140 easier than for me to go down to 135. The only reason you want the fight at 135 is because you feel that is your only chance because you hope the weight cut will affect me. You guys say Im irrelevant, yet watch my highlights. The true MMA fans not only know me, but know Im the best. Sad that you give the true MMA fans no recognition by saying that they dont matter.

Im currently training to fight at 145 on March 28 and in early May. My team has hired a medical doctor to help me make 135. I plan to challenge and win the Invicta 135 championship in the summer and challenge you, champion to champion, for your 135 belt in December.

Now I know critics will say I thought you said you would die if you made 135. All Im promising is that I will give 100 percent to try to get to 135 to make this plan happen. If I do, I will still listen to my doctors advice and fight no more than three times at 135: first to win the Invicta belt, the second time to kick your ass and the third time to kick your ass again so that the world can see it wasnt luck. You can even have me tested every week up to the fight. That way you will not have an excuse after I kick your ass.
