Obama on Internet Censorship

President Obama was in China and discussed freedom of speech. He spoke about how important it was to be able to use any means to express yourself like twitter, facebook or even this blog. Obama stated that he is a "big supporter of not restricting Internet use, Internet access, other information technologies like Twitter. The more open we are, the more we can communicate. And it also helps to draw the world together." President Obama
Obama was in China so he didnot directly talk about the restriction that Chinese government places on its citizens like censorship or even the questions that the students asked the president sound like they were approved by a government official because they avoided major questions that should have been asked.
