An excellent and surprising selection.  

I still think a lot of people don't get why press freedom is so important to democracy, and why U.S. tolerance of the murder of a WaPo journalist might have wider, worldwide consequences. 

This fits what I said on the NK thread about Fox framing of elites: journalists are part of the liberal establishment and working against Trump's effort to undermine control of global elites. Nevermind that the Saudi part of the global elite killed Kashoggi for a plan to watchdog them, and the US part provides cover.
