A Notable Speech by Pres. John F. Kennedy on the Press

Here is audio of a remarkable talk given by President John F. Kennedy to the press on the freedoms enjoyed by the press and on their responsibilities. Here is no whiner, denouncing the press for being critical of his Administration. Here is, instead, a mature statesman virtually imploring the press to point out his Administration's errors. As a wise man once said, says the President,
an error only becomes a mistake when we refuse to admit it.

Compare and contrast this talk with attitudes shown by recent Presidents, including the present one. Surely this is a speech worthy of admiration and emulation. (This audio is five minutes in length.)
