In Europe, Journalists Are Murdering Free Speech

From Gatestone Institute, dated October 24, 2017, comes this summary of the essay:
Gone is all pretense that journalism is about reporting the facts. These are the aims of a political actor.

Being bought and paid for by the EU apparently counts as "press freedom" these days.

According to the guidelines, journalists should, among other things, "Provide an appropriate range of opinions, including those belonging to migrants and members of minorities, but... not... extremist perspectives just to 'show the other side'.... Don't allow extremists' claims about acting 'in the name of Islam' to stand unchallenged.... where it is necessary and newsworthy to report hateful comments against Muslims, mediate the information."

Political correctness and multiculturalism will, sooner or later, destroy so much of what Western civilization has bequeathed to this generation. This generation of those in power in governments and in "journalism" have lost the will to survive.

Europe is some years ahead of the United States on this suicide trail. But make mistake: the United States is indeed on the same path to self-delusion and self-destruction.
