“One thing that has precipitated all of this is our failure to make the appropriate changes to the code, and so we're suffering in a gray area.

It's the same thing that precipitated the siege of Sarajevo when (former President Slobodan) Milosevic turned around the television transmitters so people didn't have access to news -- not to mention radio's infamous role in fomenting violence in Rwanda. The longer I work on media issues, the clearer it is that the free flow of information is critical to avoiding war.”
David Hoffman
