What exactly are the SC justices afraid of? If they feel their reputation has been unjustly tarnished, they always have legal recourse of suing for libel. So why the contempt ruling, if not to seek to intimidate and muzzle the 'fourth estate' into subservience - at the mercy of the whims of the SC justices? Is this the 'democracy' this nation so loudly boasts of at every international forum? Seems more a sham democarcy!
