Attempts to Suppress News Are Universal and Ongoing:
Over the centuries, journalists' attempts to report the news have been challenged continually. In most of the world, freedom of the press is the exception, rather than the rule. In some countries, journalists are imprisoned and sometimes murdered. While few nations have enjoyed as free a press as the United States has, even here freedom of the press is challenged regularly, and sometimes in has been curtailed. |
