How elected are the press, the MPs?

Veckor av läckor - Heidi Avellan - Sydsvenskan - Nyheter dygnet runt: "Och med respekten för de folkvalda."

I have a certain understanding for that the government want to tell the press first, before the MPs, because as I have seen it so far the press are more knowledgeable on the issues and on top of this publish or send the analysis immediately in a for the people easily digestible form.

Furthermore, the MPs are rarely directly elected by the people and in a way people working in the press are also indirectly elected by the public for their service.

As I already said--change the rules to the presently used fashion.
