A new report has expressed alarm at what it describes as backsliding press freedoms across the Americas, with the United States seeing the steepest decline.
The Inter American Press Association (IAPA) released its latest press freedom index on Tuesday, ranking last year as the lowest point for freedom of expression since the report began in 2020.
Researchers found that the Americas have experienced a “dramatic deterioration” in unrestricted speech, according to the report.
“This is one of the worst years for journalism in the region, marked by murders, arbitrary arrests, exile, and rampant impunity in countries such as Mexico, Honduras, Ecuador, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Guatemala, Colombia, Cuba, and Venezuela,” the report said.
Watch the movie ‘Network.’
Like ‘Idiocracy’ it went from cutting edge satire to bland docudrama in real time.
Freedom is for non hostile entities, I don’t want someone with a gun pointed at my head to have the freedom to pull the trigger.
Quit thinking like a Republican, you can’t just blindly punish your way out of every problem. You want journalists who can get information on what the guy with the gun pointed at your head to be able to report that information.
Soooo cool and edgy you are
