Fairfax journalist Matt Neal, March 2012:
Free speech can not die … Akermanis doesn’t deserve applause for his comments, nor do I agree with him, but perhaps it boils down to an ideal attributed to Voltaire: “I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.”
Fairfax journalist Matt Neal, July 2012:
As someone working in the media, I would love to see my fellow journalists and reporters put a ban on covering the views of climate change deniers … freedom of speech should only cover the truth.
