US falls to ‘historic low’ in press freedom tracker: RSF

The United States has fallen to a 'historic low' in the Reporters Without Borders annual press freedom tracker, dropping from 57th to 64th place. This decline is attributed to Trump administration policies and the consolidation of media companies, which limit viewpoint diversity. Clayton Weimers, executive director of RSF's North America office, stated that the country is experiencing a 'press freedom crisis.' Six companies control most US media.
