Free Speech Fading Out


Ranked 17th in 2002 and then 22nd last year, the United States is moving fast down the list, placing 44th on this year's international press freedom index. What is happening to our free speech?

What is happening to one of the pilliars of our Constitution?

Look at the shiny penny over here: War in Iraq, Supreme Court nominations, CIA leaks, Brad and Jenny split up. Should I go on? All the while, free speech slowly fades out.
