    What an irony!!! Is PAL saying that Press Freedom is too much? So, they are now going to take away freedom of the media to report certain stories? Nonsense. This sounds like the hallmark of government taking over the media in order to limit criticism. Does President Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf or her son, Robert Sirleaf approve of this decision? I'm just wondering.
