How free are we? Are some countries more free than we are? What does freedom even mean?
In this episode in our "US vs" series, we talk with the co-author of the Human Freedom Index, Ian Vasquez, about how we rank in our measure of liberty. Then we do a deep dive into Freedom of the Press with Jenifer Whitten-Woodring, co-author of the Historical Guide to World Media Freedom: A Country-by-Country Analysis.
Here are some links to other episodes we've done that explore our ever-changing tally of who gets those freedoms in the first place:
