When writing of today’s “Journalists” please be sure to put them in quotes to reflect the lack of any true journalistic or ethical standards that would allow for such a title to be earned!

I think they’re too big to care. They consider their anti-democratic actions as “calculated risk and collateral damage”. Sad.

It's doubly disturbing that they'd kill the cartoon, because it's the "other side" of complicity - first, they give money like a preemptive bribe, second they quash internal resentment of the preemptive bribe. They're doing the authoritarian's work for him. Ann is a hero. Billionaires suck.

It seems the US is importing the South African liberties system during its apartheid , Indian Castes system and corruption, and a German lifestyle from the 18 century when many immigrants to America benefitted of cheap labour and free speech issues.

When Milton Friedman wrote his famous essay about corporations moving to a maximization of shareholder value, I wonder if he imagined the lack of morality of corporate leaders? Did he imagin corporate leaders working against democracy around the world to maximize profits?
