LH, c'mon! Most of us here obviously have internet access and so read news from around the world, as do other Americans. We know what other countries are saying and some of us agree with them! Did you hear about the over 175 protesters who were arrested in San Francisco, today? THAT was on google news and elsewhere. A good place to look for alternative stuff is www.freespeech.org. Some satellite companies even carry Free Speech TV! Who'dathunkit? Right here in Americay!

Sometimes you just get too broad in your generalisations, ya know?
