Alex Jones.

And it is not like the newspapers are aggressive against the government, they let them get away with way too much.

Hardly, noone knows of Alex Jones except for his small group of followers on the internet, and since he is known for exaggerating the crap out of things, noone else takes him seriously...so he can report that a cop executed a 5 year old girl, and people would need video proof before they believe him

Alex Jones? The man who decides his point of view and gathers evidence to prove it, ignoring all evidence to the contrary?

The article isn't about "the government," it's about the impact local newspapers have.
