A couple quotes from The Moon is a Harsh Mistress (Robert A. Heinlein):
“A managed democracy is a wonderful thing... for the managers... and its greatest strength is a 'free press' when 'free' is defined as 'responsible' and the managers define what is 'irresponsible'.”
“Limiting the freedom of news 'just a little bit' is in the same category with the classic example 'a little bit pregnant.”
