In terms of free press a lot of progress has been made since 2008 but the strange thing is that some eurpoean democracies are declining in scores. I looked at the 2008 scores and there was no mark of 0.00 but compared to 2009 5 european countries have acheived this score. Unfortunelty this article focuses on the negative and so must I. Democrazy means freedom as long as the population wants freedom and free press. A great deal of corruption and government control in countries like France and Italy maybe cuasing these low rankings. The government has even implemented laws to control publications. Why did the public allow this?
The us's ranking has signifiganlty increased. Condisering they are at 2 wars the public desesrves to recieve full coverage without any hint of censorship. They need to understand what they are supporting or why they are not supporting. Just look at the effect free journalism did to the vietnam war. (hint hint cultural revolution)
