McCain Campaign Media Free Speech Zones

Via Think Progress, a note on the slippery slope of freedom of speech in the United States of America:
Palin staff keep journalists locked inside press area
to prevent them from writing ‘negative things.’
This is no different than the "free speech zones" that they are using to cage demonstrators in like animals. Are all of you journalists happy that you let the rights of citizens slip without speaking out?

Well? Here is your future headline if the media doesn't hit back hard on these things:
The incumbent kept the opposing candidates locked inside a
challengers area to prevent them from saying "negative things."
Here is an opportunity for the media to take back the truth. And, even, to give some sense of freedom back to the people. Freedoms are being stolen from the people, the media...

Who will be next? And will there be anyone remaining to publicly stand up for their rights?
