My issue is here is that we need to support. It goes back to the discussion earlier, that there are alternative mechanisms and if somebody disputes something that a journalist raises, that they would raise those issues.

I want to come back to Dave's point about how close some newspapers are, in that one bad legal judgment could make newspapers fold. How close is that in reality, on the ground? We might even talk about the local radio stations or national press as well.
