They are fascists.
Who defines what is of value to the public anyway? I don't suppose too many people would deny that things like weather reports are of value to the public, but if you are, say, a convinced Christian the gospel is of immense value to the public. If you are a mathematician, numeracy is of immense value to the public. If you are Julian Assange telling everyone everything without check or interpretation is of immense value to the public.
I don't want some Government functionary, of any political stripe, telling me what is good for me to hear.
