    How does this sort of thing get rated?
  • The article explains how. But shit like this isn't going to help:

    "However, Dalglish said that the US administration had made "veiled threats" against some journalists, accusing them of "espionage" in order to encourage them to self-censor material."
  • I'm already hearing that here and there sincesome time now.

    I don't know if it's just rumour, but it's the Junior Admin. style to do it ;)

    edit: I mean, helloooo, they just legalized torture!
    Reality isn't what it used to be.
