“Cancellations, sometimes violent protests, behind-the-scenes censorship, and overt government threats to muzzle the media. Free speech is doing better in the U.S. than elsewhere in the world, but that doesn’t mean it’s doing well.

That has Americans worried, though even as they fret over the future of free speech a significant minority contribute to the problem.” (11/24/25)
