Ecuador - where the concept of a free press is increasingly under attack !

As someone posted elsewhere, it’s interesting that Wikileaks, Manning and now this guy only attack Western democracies then hide in near dictatorships.

And what happens when those governments change? Correa isn’t going to be in power forever - if he doesn’t die in office, he could deposed in a coup or there may even be an uprising or revolution.

Suppose Snowden does indeed go to Ecuador, as seems likely. Five years from now, the Correa government is replaced - one way or another - by a pro-American government, or at least one that’s non-hostile to the US.

I guess then Fast Eddie goes on the run again, or risk the new government deporting his ass back to the USA.
