At a time when dictators and strongmen around the world are imprisoning and killing journalists and using cries of “fake news” to justify it, U.S. foreign policy needs to include a robust defense of freedom of the press.

That’s wrong.
Secretary Pompeo, your role is to defend American values around the world, and that includes the protecting the freedom of journalists to ask difficult questions of those who are given the high responsibility of governing this country.
