where is it going?

when I saw this article I said "They are crazy!" I do not have any plan to get a job related to the press, but as student of Journalism and communication, I really worried about Korean media. Until I got a news that we can use just part of youtube I thought it can be possible to make clear online environment, because some people hurt or died because of rumer on online that spread by personal information covered internet users. However, this is not same to youtube things. It is really serious danger of freedom of speech.
The producer of PD note is just want to show to the public the real situation that our government's behaviors and after the program on air, president appologized to public, also. It means, changing import policy about American beef is mistake of government but now they insist that the program include lie things and it was intended. If producer made lying program, why they couldn't suggest evidences that prove producer's lying, and why they agree with them and appologize to the public? Why they said different things by one mouth?
I'm sure that it is a sort of warning to journalist. Government said through this case, "You have to under control by government, and if not, you are go to jail like this!" They are crazy. I'm worried about our future, seriously.
