Ann-Magrit Austenå
Ann-Magrit Austenå is the chairperson of Norsk Pen, an independent organization dedicated to promoting freedom of expression. She has been a vocal critic of recent changes at The Washington Post, particularly regarding Jeff Bezos' directive to focus solely on perspectives that support personal freedom and free markets. Austenå argues that this shift undermines the essential role of editorially governed media in providing a platform for diverse opinions and rigorous fact-checking, distinguishing it from the often unregulated discourse found on social media.
