For we are opposed around the world by a monolithic and ruthless conspiracy that relies primarily on covert means for expanding its sphere of influence on infiltration instead of invasion on subversion instead of Elections on intimidation instead of free choice on guerrillas by night instead of armies by day it is a system which has conscripted vast human and material resources into the building of a tightly knit highly efficient machine that combines military diplomatic intelligence economic scientific and political operations it's preparations are concealed not published its mistakes are buried not headlined it's dissenters are silenced not praised no expenditure is questioned no rumor is printed no secret is revealed. President John F. Kennedy’s Address on "The President and the Press" to the American Newspapers Publishers Association, New York City. The President urges journalists ‘to heed the duty of self-restraint’ in reporting matters that may affect U.S. national security. Kennedy spoke before the Bureau of Advertising of the American Newspaper Publishers Association, Inc., at their annual (48th) Dinner. presidency.ucsb.edu The very word "secrecy" is repugnant in a free and open society; and we are as a people inherently and historically opposed to secret societies, to secret oaths and to secret proceedings. We decided long ago that the dangers of excessive and unwarranted concealment of pertinent facts far outweighed the dangers which are cited to justify it. Even today, there is little value in opposing the threat of a closed society by imitating its arbitrary restrictions. Even today, there is little value in insuring the survival of our nation if our traditions do not survive with it. And there is very grave danger that an announced need for increased security will be seized upon by those anxious to expand its meaning to the very limits of official censorship and concealment. That I do not intend to permit to the extent that it is in my control. And no official of my Administration, whether his rank is high or low, civilian or military, should interpret my words here tonight as an excuse to censor the news, to stifle dissent, to cover up our mistakes or to withhold from the press and the public the facts they deserve to know.
