(ANSA) – Vatican City, November 24 – Freedom of information and of the press must be defended, journalist Gianluigi Nuzzi told reporters Tuesday as the so-called Vatileaks 2 trial kicked off.

“We are not martyrs, we are just reporters but some principles must be defended,” said Nuzzi, one of five defendants in the document-leaking case.

“You can criticize, appreciate, or blame but there is another level, which is safeguarding freedom of information”.
