Press Freedom Index 2011-2012 - Reporters Without Borders
Just in case you were wondering where the USA has fallen to in rank on the Freedom of The Press (and Journalists) issues we are now 47th we used to be 20th. That means we've fallen 27 places. 20+27=47...yeah we can add.....maybe we should all become accountants/bankers in the USA...how's that all adding up fer ya.
BTW, Occupy Wall Street does fit into the equation of the lower ranking in our USA's Freedom for Reporters and Journalists.
“Crackdown was the word of the year in 2011. Never has freedom of information been so closely associated with democracy. Never have journalists, through their reporting, vexed the enemies of freedom so much. Never have acts of censorship and physical attacks on journalists seemed so numerous. The equation is simple: the absence or suppression of civil liberties leads necessarily to the suppression of media freedom. Dictatorships fear and ban information, especially when it may undermine them. (from the Reporters Without Borders Website)
