I thank Dr. Mercille. It is one thing to feel pressure as a journalist or to believe something has been implied to a journalist, but it is another thing for the journalist to actually act on it. Does Dr. Mercille have any specific evidence of a journalist changing what he or she was going to write or report based on the threat, either specific or implied?
