This is a political forum that is non-biased/non-partisan and treats every person's position on topics equally. This debate forum is not aligned to any political party. In today's politics, many ideas are split between and even within all the political parties. Often we find ourselves agreeing on one platform but some topics break our mold. We are here to discuss them in a civil political debate. If this is your first visit to our political forums, be sure to check out the RULES.

I have no idea why Turkey is not > black/very serious situation.
There are more journalists incarcerated in Turkey than anywhere else in the world.

Committee to Protect Journalists - Hundreds of journalists jailed globally becomes the new normal
For the third year in a row, 251 or more journalists are jailed around the world, suggesting the authoritarian approach to critical news coverage is more than a temporary spike. China, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia imprisoned more journalists than last year, and Turkey remained the world’s worst jailer. A CPJ special report by Elana Beiser.

Also, the U.S., Brazil, Mexico, Italy, the Philippines and most of Central America should be a shade darker...

Yes, absolutely.
We do not have genuine freedom of the press here in the States.
And when President Pence transfers the White House to President-elect Biden in January, 2021, even less freedom will follow.
