Press freedom
I was reminded recently of Saddam Hussein and the story of Iraqi businessmen he was displeased with for dealing in foreign currency; he ordered their right hands to be amputated as punishment.
Was I reminded of this story because of the news that President-elect Donald Trump summoned major media executives and journalists to a private meeting at the Trump Tower?
We all know how that went down. America, we cannot allow our journalists to be neutered!
