Hope and Change

The only people who should have been surprised by this are journalists: "America drops to #47 in World Press Freedom Index". This is not the change we were waiting for, I don't think.

Followup: I can't imagine this will help:

But under the Obama administration, the Federal Communications Commission is planning to send government contractors into the nation's newsrooms to determine whether journalists are producing articles, television reports, Internet content, and commentary that meets the public's "critical information needs." Those "needs" will be defined by the administration, and news outlets that do not comply with the government's standards could face an uncertain future. It's hard to imagine a project more at odds with the First Amendment.

  1. Nice to see the media starting to get uncomfortable with what liberals like Obama are doing. He's been making a lot of unconstitutional attempts to weaken the 2nd Amendment, but it's not until now, when he's trying to weaken the 1st Amendment that they actually take notice.
