Media

In the Dominican Republic they have there own sources of media. It ranges from 7 service TV stations (1-state owned; 6 independent), 11 daily news papers (27 per 1000 people) and 131 radio stations (1-state owned; 130 independent).
As I research media in the Dominican I found out, much to my surprise, that they don't have government censorship. This is surprising to me because they seem like a country to me that is much like the United States so I would expect some censorship, but they have none. It is probably because most of their media is independently owned...Which can be a good and bad then. I think that they should have some censorship...What do you think?
