I heard that the US is extraditing a journalist and he may face the death penalty. Looks like the US is not so much better than Saudi Arabia when it comes to press freedom. They keep up the government sponsored propaganda, while attacking independent journalists all under the guise of "fake news" even after state sponsored media is shown to be intentionally lying, again and again and again.

@jeffking4176 Last I heard, he got the info by people leaking it to him. He did nothing wrong, although maybe some of the whistleblowers were violating laws. That is beside the point. Kashagi and Assange made enemies with governments by seeking out information that the governments did not wish to be exposed to the public, whatever excuse you use to say that there should be different standards for one than the other is just that, an excuse. Once again, the US is not so much better than Saudi Arabia when it comes to press freedom.
