As Rupert Murdoch deals with the fallout from ousting managing editor Marcus Brauchli, he’s got another mini crisis to handle: The island nation of Fiji is forcibly removing Fiji Times publisher Evan Hannah from its borders.

Courtesy 2006’s bloodless coup that put military commander Frank Bainimarama in charge, Fiji now views Hannah as a national security threat. He was detained and faces deportation; he’s expected to leave for Australia on Friday. All this follows the deportation of fellow Aussie Russell Hunter, publisher of rival Fiji Sun, who was kicked out in February for, what else, criticizing Bainimarama’s regime.

Pretty harsh treatment, especially for a country whose interim prime minister just made a public statement promising to uphold media freedom. Though it’s not like these guys were charged with “committing journalism” and sent to prison like some other members of the press.
