“Free speech” doesn’t entitle you to dictate policy over privately held companies. We spent four years trying to convince Trumpers of this. Be smarter.
What do you mean, did the Biden admin target any particular shows or networks? Are you also aware the current admin is holding off Paramount’s merger to exert influence over their programming? IDK how free that feels. May not be directly breaking laws, but it’s absolutely a subversion of free speech.
No, it’s not. Free speech protects what you say from the government, not your employer. Your employer ALSO has free speech, meaning they can decide what can and can’t be said on their property.
This is like saying Sesame Street doesn’t show hardcore porn and that’s a violation of free speech.
That a poor comparison since on x the moderations is about random citizen and not paid employee doing a work for a company that a the end of the day is free to choose how to spent her money
Colbert didn’t go to prison, not really a good argument.
There are many ways to suppress speech.

Like axing a show that didn’t make money ?

Even if that were true, which it isn’t, what business does the president have even mentioning it much less making a demand?
Trump unloads in late-night rants threatening to prosecute news networks, Beyonce, Oprah and Kamala Harris
I’m sure Colbert’s on the list somewhere.
Why is this downvoted? It correctly point out what “free speech” actually means.
