I'm not a member of Parliament, so I will not make any comments on legislation. But as a member of senior executive of a media company--and I mentioned it in my presentation--everyone will say that media are a strong and probably unavoidable pillar of democracy.
I did a little bit of philosophy when I was at university. A guy by the name of Montesquieu said that we need to separate the different powers. He didn't mention media at that time because it didn't exist. But as the fourth pillar of democracy, newspapers need to be managed independently, as do all media companies. Protecting journalistic sources is certainly one of the most important assumptions to make sure that newspapers and media will continue to be that pillar supporting democracy in the end.
