"How dare some people suggest that, on the basis of some allegations, they have
any right to tell others what to read and what not to read in their private capacity in Nepal?
Nepalis are FREE to read whatever they want to read, and then interpret it in
any way they want. It's as simple as that." --Ashu
Your first sentence outrightly contradicts your statement in the second sentence. Whoever this guy is and whether his arguments have any truth in them or not, he's simply using his freedom of expression. Nothing daring about it.
What *would* be offensive, for example, is if he had *coerced* people to read only certain type of newspaper. But he is only making a case based on *his interpretation* of the information he has, and I fail to see what is so inherently objectionable about it.
