The civil war began when Azerbaijan shut down the Armenian-language television station.

The longer I work on media issues, the clearer it is that the free flow of information is critical to avoiding war.
More Quotes from David Hoffman:
As city attorney, my client is the city of Monticello. The actual conflict of interest would not have arisen until the city determined to pursue action against Mr. Donaldson.
