This is a corporate assault on the First Amendment Rights of good Americans.
This is not a first admendment issue. That only protects people from government independance. No one from the U.S. government has attemped to stop Rush from speaking his mind. He can talk about anything he wants. This is just people that don’t want to do business with him at this time. You are allowed to not do business with someone that you don’t like, as these businesses are doing. This is just the free market at work.
Did Congress make a law?
Nope.
So your statement is patently wrong.
The First Amendment applies to government taking away RIGHTS.
Rush and Hannity and the others still have a RIGHT to speak freely. They just don't have a many people paying them money for the privilege of advertising on their shows.
Please don't post such, it makes the Conservative movement look like we are ignorant of how the Founding Documents really work.
Not really Uncle.
Rush has no right to a platform or to be heard.
He can go out on his beach and talk to the waves all day and night...that is his right.
This just shows the left is far more organized than we are in expressing their displeasure with advertisers.
*it was not always this way, Evangelical groups in the 70s used to scare the pants off advertisers...Wildmon from Tupelo MS ..anyone recall him?
