I am not a fan of North Korea or its leader [How will US respond to Sony hack? Nation & World, Dec. 18]. Second, I am not a fan of imposed censorship. But, the reason we do not have imposed censorship in this country is because we exercise responsible freedom of speech. <\/p>\n

Self-censorship is always important, both in personal and professional spheres. Making stupidly obnoxious films and calling them comedies seems to be a Hollywood expertise, and condoning this is a rejection of the idea of self-censorship. <\/p>\n

When a company is insane enough to make a movie about the assassination of a real person and call it a comedy, and when proponents of free speech are insane enough to feel it is justified, then we have an example of the breakdown in social constraints. <\/p>\n

Sony got, in my opinion, what it deserved. <\/p>\n
