Our impartial, apolitical, fearless soothsayers of truth to power at Freedom House:
Freedom House, a Washington-based organization that monitors political rights and civil liberties, tells him in 2003 that the group has decided to back off from its efforts to spotlight human rights abuses in Uzbekistan.

This and other violence is of interest, admits the NY Times, but "[u]nfortunately, the book is a mess" due to an equal time share given to the second source of all human entertainment, thus assuring this sordid little tale's confinement to the dustbin of history.
