In 2018, the national council of the Muscogee (Creek) Nation in Oklahoma—the fourth-largest Native American tribe in the US—repealed its free press act. The act, passed in 2015, protected the Nation’s independent media, Mvskoke Media, which had closely investigated wrongdoing in the tribal government.
