Some people believe that 13 is an unlucky number for various reasons. Today is December 13, the doomsday for journalists and media freedom in Sri Lanka.
We, journalists working at the Associated Newspapers of Ceylon Limited (ANCL) popularly known as Lake House remember December 13, in year 2018 very well. It was two years ago on a day like this that we faced the ugliest mob attack in Sri Lanka’s print media history, launched by the goons of the Yahapalana Government.
But it was neither the first nor the last attack on journalists by colonialists, capitalists, and thugs who rally round journalists all the time as political parties.
