Tech writer iced for expressing opinion. Not 'objective' [The Register]
The story is probably going to become typical as the days go by. Corporate ownership of the press is an ugly business only overshadowed by state ownership of the press.
I found the Reporters sans frontières worldwide press freedom index quite interesting. The USA languishing at #17 didn't surprise me but the UK being at #21 did. I hadn't realised that things were actually worse here! I doubt anyone in Italy will be surprised by their showing at #40. Thank you signor Berlusconi!
