Like the WHO official whose connection went dead when asked about Taiwan.

The "connection died" thing has become such an over-used tool to censor people. It almost makes me wish they did in-person interviews more.

The WHO official commenting about Taiwan was great. I most certainly hope that stays online out there in some form. That's Bagdad bob level of trollery.

But I'm gonna guess in-person interviews are just too dangerous now and in the future for most access media folks.

I think it's more that Clapper hung up when asked about leaks, since he violated his security clearance repeatedly to leak top secret information.
