At a loss of $40 million a year. Not a wise business model.

It seems that everyone is missing the elephant in the room.

I’m a first amendment soldier.

However, folks using the argument that actions taken today will somehow lead to unrestrained persecution by the left “when the pendulum swings” must have been in a coma over the last ten years.

No matter what conservative administrations do, if/when the left retakes power, they will use every government entity available to harass and persecute their perceived political enemies.

It takes courage and listening to other points of view, to be able to communicate that portion of the truth that you have.

Agreed. Without familiarity with the argument upon false premises it is difficult to repose effectively. In fact, that rejoinder must be built upon an inviolable and immediately obvious physical foundation. It's why I appreciate living among leftists in the People's Republic of Santa Cruz County, CA.

Yet in the face of such evidence, the response is likely to be either denial, obvious dishonesty, or simple avoidance because they suffer from the fear of retribution by even more ignorant fellows. This is where repetition in the face of empty space becomes necessary, and a real expression of courage. Sometimes events present an opportunity to get under that skin. At that point one must leap, but not too hard, with which to build upon those repetitions.

It's a long slog we face.

I at first thought No don’t fire him leave the jerk on the air....

But his whiny entitlement has changed my mind....

We’re all equal under the law...

So why is he entitled to that network platform and all that money for his free speech while the rest of us aren’t..

His free speech is no more special than any of us and he deserves the same platform the rest of us have Just being another person out here on the internet... He’s not entitled to that network platform any more than the rest of us are
