Thanks to the campaign finance laws, political groups are now busy filling FCC complaints at any sign of “partisan” behavior by the media. According to them, speech is only “free” when it’s non-commercial, non-political, and anti-“hate.” Political stances are a “right” reserved for politicians, it seems. All thanks to John McCain, a corrupt has-been politician, who made a comeback peddling censorship and now has both parties in his lap for his “non-partisan” positions.
On top of that, arbitrarily selected categories of speech are banned for being sexually-explicit or violent – or the group in question is threatened until it begins “voluntary self-regulation.” Free speech in America is not dead yet, but there are very few left who understand what it means.
