What's frustrating to me is when I lived in the Soviet Union, we did not have free press (see my tagline) and thought that there is one in the West. I came here and see that there is no free press here either in the sense that people caot get fair and balanced info but are being fed semi-digested lopsided propaganda. How is it different from the Soviet Union?
