Media Freedom: Over at the Center for Media & Democracy’s PR Watch site, Diane Farsetta is crowing about the success her organization has had in persuading the Federal Communications Commission to step in and start second-guessing the news judgment of television producers.

Over at The Holmes Report website, in an article that’s probably too long for the blog, I explain why the term “fake news” is absurd, why the issue is media freedom rather than commercial speech, and why it’s time for PR people to defend the media against these attacks on its independence.
