Experience tells us that if you don’t let the steam out of a pot, the pot will explode. But when we stifle, step by step, all that remains of a free press, when even small television channels that provide uncensored information seem dangerous, we are keeping the lid firmly on the pot.
如果没有独立的新闻舆论和议会对政府的种种错误进行监督，那么最终将导致街头抗议。民主政治不是傻瓜发明的。经验告诉我们，如果不让蒸汽逸出，茶壶将会爆炸。但是，当我们一步一步扼杀自由新闻舆论残余时，甚至当小规模电视频道提供未经审查的信息时都面临危险时，我们正紧紧地捂住茶壶的盖子。我敢说这比犯罪都更加恶劣。这是一种错误。
