A Fourth of July Message...

As we stop to celebrate our freedom, I offer a timely reminder of what too many of our citizens take for granted every day....

As newspaper readership declines in the United States, an anti-communist group here plans to distribute copies of its newspaper to North Koreans by balloon.

The newspaper will expose and condemn human rights violations in the communist country with articles written by defectors living in the South. The two-page newspaper will also describe the freedoms and affluence in South Korea, officials from the group said.

More here. Happy Fourth, everyone. And take a moment to remember how much work is done in the name of freedom, every day, around the world.
