Does CNN really think people in those countries have no other means of news?

“Does CNN really think people in those countries have no other means of news?”

You raise an interesting point. Some of those countries (China) do have restrictions on which websites their citizens are allowed to visit. The presumption is that the rulers don’t want their citizens to get any crazy ideas about freedom and liberty in their heads that certain websites promote, such as Free Republic. It’s very telling that these countries in which the rulers determine which news channels and websites are ‘safe’ to view, and which ones may be seen as a threat (the ones promoting freedom and liberty), that those same rulers/dictators feel quite comfortable with the propaganda that CNN dishes out to its viewers. Communist China supports CNN.
