DirecTV Removes Conservative News Network in Blow to Free Speech

@beckyromero why doesn’t everyone that post things on you tube, just post them on the internet instead ?

@ididntknow

As you know, YouTube is on the internet.

But if a person or organization's content is rejected by YouTube, they are free to create their own website or blog.

If a cable network can't get providers to add them as a channel, that cable network can always put up a website and let their viewers get the same identical content that otherwise would have been on the cable network.

@beckyromero ok let’s take Down all the left wing propaganda down from you tube, it’s only fair

@ididntknow

See, that's what you don't understand about free market capitalism.

You want it to be equal. If a company doesn't want to purchase a certain product and make it available in their stores (in this case, on THEIR cable network), you think the competition should be barred as well, to make it "fair."

All that equalization you want on the airwaves to me sounds like you want to bring back the fairness doctrine. Isn't that what conservatives railed against for years?

If that's what you really want, then for all the time FOX News covers Trump and his rallies, etc., equal time should be given to Never-Trumpers in the GOP, like Liz Cheney.

If Jeb Bush got the same amount of free air time Trump got in the GOP primaries, he might be into his second term in the White House right now.

@sunsporter1649

Would you care to discuss talk radio shows?

Because the Fairness Doctrine you want to re-implement would apply there as well.

@beckyromero LOL, every time you left-wing nut job put anything on radio it fails miserable

@sunsporter1649

Part of the problem is that talk radio tends to veer to the extremes, just as political activism tends to be.
