In press freedom, right between Nicaragua and Togo. Ten of the countries that rank ahead of the US for press freedom are nations that were, at one time, communist.
If you look at the 2002 rankings, only one former communist nation was ahead of the US and the US ranked 17th. We can fairly blame that abysmal slide on those two self-styled defenders of freedom, George "Chimpy" Bush and Richard "Voldemort" Cheney.
Well, nobody can accuse those two putzim of not accomplishing anything in six years, if you regard destroying press freedom as an "accomplishment".

If you're one of the Covidiots who believe that COVID-19 is "just the flu",
that the 2020 election was stolen, or
especially if you supported the 1/6/21 insurrection,
leave now.

COMMENT MODERATION IS IN EFFECT UFN. This means that if you are an insulting dick, nobody will ever see it.
Actually, list doesn't mean a thing; I'd like to see actual numbers and data. It's really simple for a bunch of journalists to criticize each other's country without giving good reason. I don't really see anything other than a few opinions being voiced. And I don't regard journalists as being either very bright or unbiased. The can't figure statistics, they aren't that good at grammar or spelling, they have little or no knowledge of history. What do they study for four years of college? I'd have to see something more substantial than a few hack writer's opinions, thanks.
