I don't believe all these stats... I'm pretty sure China would have their own version of the 'Press Freedom Index' which shows China as having perfect press freedom and US and Europe having terrible scores. Based on what I can observe with my own eyes and having travelled around the world, I don't think there is much press freedom at all in US or Europe. The only difference is that in China, they suck up to the government but in the west, they suck up to corporations. There are pros and cons to either but I wouldn't say one is better than another.
