>>The State can't have it both ways though, banning the news that they don't want and allowing the news they do want, not in a free state anyway.
Of course not. They simply shouldn't be banning news or running in reporters. It's pretty clear they don't want the pictures in the papers. The protesters of course do, hence tipping off the press etc.
But the State can if it wants act on deliberate, counterfactual misinformation.
