Comments by Michael Deturbide, Media & Internet Law Professor

Stephen Kimber and Stephanie Domet recently resigned from The Daily New
newspapers because of undue interference by the CanWest Owners/Asper Family.
The censorship of journalists is downright scary. Our access to unbiased
information is threatened. What can we do?
