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.

Any chance the EU would consider responding to stupid US economic attacks with a free press service like voice of america was initially intended for?
@alienghic @claesdevreese I think that would be an amazing move
I was hoping too... I feel like the US is getting to be trapped in a web of lies due to all the regime supporting oligarch owned news.
