Our New And Improved Press Card!

By Maurice Ali, Journalist



I have authorized the production of the second generation "press card" that will replace the present one. You will note that it is based on the first one with some small changes to prevent confusion, fit in wallet/purse compartments with credit cards; and to make the card easier to label or produce at point of query (and authorized by a unique code at our end instead of a signature and stamp). Here are pdf files of the new card:

Back Of Card


Some still question the reason for the press card. Here is the most recent reason as heard in an unedited recording of myself trying to secure an interview and having to use the press card:

Press Card At Work

That is the proof! We take it for granted that we can report the news in the western world; however in more oppressed parts of the globe, the press card will be cherished as direct third party endorsement of their credentials as a journalist. Our organization is committed to lobbying for international treaties protecting the journalist in the field and their rights to do their job.
