My maternal grandmother once was in jeopardy for listening to the BBC. I was a keen follower of the BBC, from childhood (and I have read Pravda, Fox News, Der Spiegel, and others, as I feel inclined). Recently, though, my old friend the BBC demanded registration. I could not read articles without it. While we now live in a very different time, the experience of my grandmother dissuades me from registering with a news outlet. OBSERVATION: But there is more to it than that.
