Press Freedom

Reporters Without Borders say that North Korea, Turkmenistan, and Eritrea are the worst places for press freedom. The eye popper for us is the fall of France, the US, and Japan. The issue for the US is apparently the willingness of courts to challenge reporters on confidential sources. For those of us who get a lot of news and commentary off the, for us borderless, WWW this is less an issue than for some but if the papers don't add good content we do have problems.
