Media lies threaten the truth and decency on which democracy depends

 The survival of a civilised society depends on moral restraint, particularly from its leading figures. In 1954, Joseph Nye Welch, chief counsel for the US army, responded to the red-baiting of Senator Joe McCarthy by asking “Have you no sense of decency, sir?” 

Free societies will die if those with influence, wealth and power lack that virtue.
