Arnold Schwarzenegger puts the media under the spotlight

As per the source, the 75-year-old legend took the stage virtually to discuss how the “free press” of the country has maintained the foundation of the nation, which is, freedom. He began by repeatedly thanking the media, crediting them for encouraging the country’s success and also his own. 

“I just simply wanted to say thank you thank you thank you to all of you gathered here today because our country wouldn’t be the shining beacon of freedom that welcomes people like me without the free press, let’s be honest about that. And tonight’s message of course sends a powerful message…now I wouldn’t be the Arnold that you know, without the press, that’s a fact,” Schwarzenegger shared.
