Friends

Over the years I've read many righteous rants in support of journalistic freedom from journalists. Usually I agreed, though occasionally the equation of "working for elite press operation" with "freedom of speech" would rankle. Sure it didn't happen here, but the lack of noise about the destruction of the hard drives has been a bit unsettling. Freedom's important when it's about your friends or maybe friends of your friends. Otherwise, not so much.
