Claes de Vreese ☑️

As Vance 'lectures' Europe on free speech, it is good to be reminded that the United States ranks 55 (!) on the World Press Freedom Index.

The top 10 countries are ALL in Europe.

@Pineywoozle @claesdevreese Occupy was when cops decided it was OK if a few journalists got arrested along with the hippies, and it’s been all downhill since then.

@mazz Think its been downhill since Kent State. Still wonder how we rated with the rest of the world, before the Mango Mussolini and his smooth brained muskrat puppeteer. @claesdevreese

@Pineywoozle @claesdevreese We were 41st in 2016, up from 49th in 2015. We were 36th at the start of the Obama Administration. rsf.org/en/united-states-ranks

rsf.orgThe United States ranks 41st in Reporters Without Borders 2016 World Press Freedom IndexThe United States’ ranking improved in Reporters Without Borders (RSF) World Press Freedom Index, published on April 20. At 49th place in 2015, the country now ranks 41st out of 180 countries. This improvement in ranking is, however, quite relative, as in this section of the Index surrounding countries’ scores are close and small improvements are enough to drive such a positive evolution. This relative improvement by comparison hides overall negative trends.
