The media is the only institution whose main function is to expose something hidden, covered-up or suspicious - a statement by a current judge

The current judge of the Tbilisi City Court, Davit Narimanishvili, responds to the frequent attacks on the media and writes on Facebook that the media is the primary guardian of liberal democracy. The judge notes that an unsubstantiated story has been made about him many times, but also notes that the media is the only institution to reveal the hidden.

The media always sets the agenda in the society. I am anxiously watching the facts of the attack on them, even though I have been a "victim" of some unsubstantiated stories and articles from them since 2004. The media is the guardian of liberal democracy in the first place, because it is the only institution whose main function is to expose the hidden, the covered up or the suspicious. Therefore, I wish success for each of them," Davit Narimanishvili wrote.
