Considering he served 12 or so years I’m not sure he won anything. But it’s great he’s free, or it sounds like.

  > Considering he served 12 or so years I’m not sure he won anything. He didn't serve 12 years. He locked himself in his room for 7, then he actually served 5.

    I think that qualifies. 12 years of no freedom. Happy he finally gets to move on with his life. A real brave journalist who actually spoke truth to power.

      > I think that qualifies. 12 years of no freedom. It absolutely does not quality. Being on the lam is obviously not the same as serving time in custody. You can only sum up to 12 by making false equivalencies and ignoring important differences. It reeks of having a self-serving preordained conclusion (or being downstream from one) then distorting everything until it fits.
