English term or phrase: paper-bound journalist
Hello,

I´d appreciate your help.

Y. S., a dissident journalist from Cuba, who chronicled the everyday failures of the Cuban regime. Time magazine had listed her as one of the world’s 100 most influential people in 2008, stating that “under the nose of a regime that has never tolerated dissent, she has practiced what paper-bound journalists in her country cannot; freedom of speech.”


Thank you.

Explanation:
Si bien habla de 'periodistas', por el uso general que le da, podríamos hablar de prensa.

...practicando lo que no puede la prensa escrita, la libertad de expresión.

periodista de (la) prensa escrita / del papel


Explanation:
La primera de las dos sugerencias es la más extendida, y también la que me gusta más. El artículo "la" es opcional. "Periodista del papel" se dice bastante también, y refleja la misma idea, pero en mi opinión suena un poco peor.

La idea del texto original entiendo que es separar este concepto (el periodista que se expresa solo por el medio escrito) del periodista radiofónico, o que se expresa por otros canales.
