DirecTV Removes Conservative News Network in Blow to Free Speech

"The largest satellite provider in the United States said late Friday it will drop One America News, a move that could financially cripple the rightwing TV network known for fueling conspiracy theories about the 2020 election.

The announcement by DirecTV, which is 70% owned by AT&T, comes three months after a Reuters investigation revealed that OAN’s founder testified that AT&T inspired him to create the network. Court testimony also showed that OAN receives nearly all of its revenue from DirecTV."

It is not a "blow to free speech". The channel OAN is free to broadcast its lies on other television providers, or even the internet. They are even free to reinvent themselves as a streaming service. No government agency can stop them.

@CorvusBlackthorne Does CNN, MSNBC broadcast lies ?

@ididntknow Would you know a lie if it stood before you in a tuxedo?

@CorvusBlackthorne As usual, a person that can’t answer a simple question

@ididntknow I feel no need to answer your tu quoque fallacy. If you cannot focus on the topic at hand without distracting with a dramatic "J'accuse!" then you have no argument.

@CorvusBlackthorne you still haven’t answered

@sunsporter1649 And yet it is you clowns who are still whining about Obama half a decade later and as this post shows it is you clowns whining about the Steele dossier half a decade later.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow I get it, only left-wing nut-job islamo-nazi marxists like you are permitted to spread bullschiff without being called on it.

@sunsporter1649 Actually, I called you out on your bullshit and you posted a cartoon proving me correct.

@sunsporter1649 Thank you for proving me right by whining about bullshit from 2016.

@sunsporter1649 A completely bullshit victim complex argument. I have never once claimed the Steele dossier or "Russiagate" was legit. Quite the opposite actually.

But you are too dense to know the difference between a Maddow loving liberal and a leftist so of course you are confused.

sunsporter1649 · 70-79, M

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow There is a difference? 'Splain it to us, genius

PicturesOfABetterTomorrow · 41-45, M

@sunsporter1649 A big different. Guess you didn't finish high school.

If you found your way here you know how to use google. Educate yourself. You are not paying me to be your civics 101 teacher.

sunsporter1649 · 70-79, M

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow So you don't know either. Amusing

PicturesOfABetterTomorrow · 41-45, M

@sunsporter1649 I do, but I don't educate the wilfully ignorant for free.

sunsporter1649 · 70-79, M

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow More bullschiff from a left-wing nut-job islamo-nazi marxist

PicturesOfABetterTomorrow · 41-45, M

@sunsporter1649 Your ignorance and lack of education is not my responsibility.

CorvusBlackthorne · M

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow Do not blame @sunsporter1649. He is clearly suffering from cranial trauma.
