Just to be clear: they suspended him for criticizing MAGA for trying to claim that the killer wasn't one of them. He didn't say anything about Charlie Kirk. He was censored for speaking truth by his own network. Not only censored, censured and suspended indefinitely.
We're 100% there kids. The founding fathers made a point to put something right after freedom of speech, from religion, and of assembly. Right there 2nd in order. Unabridged. Welp the 1st amendment is being abridged as we speak. And I hear that second thing was put in place to protect that first thing. I've been hearing it for over 50 years.
*quick edit in case anyone else wants to try to educate me about the constitution: no, he isn't protected by the 1st amendment from getting suspended. ABC should be protected but seeing as they've already settled for $16 million over threats on their FCC license and brought in new trump-friendly leadership, we can all agree he wasn't suspended due to ratings drops. Stop pretending things are normal. This is an obvious 1st amendment issue.
This has nothing to do with the first amendment.
It abso-fucking-lutely does.
This is the government controlling speech thru threat of trumped up criminal charges and frivolous lawsuits.
trumps been suing these big corps and they've been caving, it worked.
This time he sicced the FCC on them threatening criminal charges, and it worked again
There has to be consequences in the form of immediate loss of revenue or this will keep working and trump will keep asking for more.
Start paying attention cuz it's getting to the point people won't believe claims of ignorance for where things are headed.
I agree with your point; nothing in the comment I responded to made anything close to or even alluded to your point.
Just look at their “clarifying” response to my comment.
Yeah. Saw that...
You've made it abundantly clear you're treating this like a debate club and not the fall of our fucking country.
You know there was someone else who got relatively famous selling his soul doing that...
