The US State Department has no business pursuing, directly or indirectly, what Americans read. That is our business, not theirs. These lists are clearly ideological and domestic in nature.
I had a bookmark for Reason. For some reason I got rid of it.
Half the time, Reason is great. The other half of the time they are an open-borders-defending rag.
