Forbes Deletes Article About Twitter as 'Worst Company on Planet Earth' P.J. Gladnick January 16th, 2021 3:30 PM
“On the heels of Forbes magazine editor Randall Lane threatening companies that hire Trump officials, we now have that periodical politically cleansing its own website of an article critical of their beloved social media monopolist that also engages in cracking down on free speech. Such was the case on Monday when Forbes deleted an article by frequent contributor, Jim Collins, that dared to strongly criticize Twitter which is now obviously a prohibited activity.

Forbes is literally owned by a Chinese company. It is not the business magazine we all knew. It’s pure red China inc.
Well if you tried to read Forbes the last couple years they pretty much full on Marxists...not liberal capitalists...like Chairman Mao level stuff
Jim Collins can post it somewhere else if he’s in disagreement with Forbe’s decision, and he should ASAP.
bttt
“Forbes is literally owned by a Chinese company. It is not the business magazine we all knew. It’s pure red China inc.”
I went to a large, conservative, college, back in the days of the First Amendment (seems so quaint now). They had ‘Journalism’ and ‘Communications’ majors, among the usual majors. Virtually every opinion piece in the college newspaper was conservative (or neutral)...except, you guessed it, the ones written by ‘Journalism’ or ‘Communications’ majors, and they weren’t just liberal, they were as hate-filled as what we see now. There was no exception to this...every piece published from these two majors was hate-filled.
Bottom line: If any news organization wants to keep this disease out, they have to ACTIVELY do it, and among other things, that means a blanket NOT HIRED for those types of majors (which is still legal, as far as I know), and, of course, very careful researching whoever they do hire, as they always leave breadcrumbs regarding their past.
As to China...doesn’t make a difference, and I wouldn’t be surprised if China doesn’t even bother telling Forbes how to do things, as they don’t need to.
"Forbes, though, defended the opinion piece as an example of diverse views in his company."
"His comments come after he told Newsmax TV over the weekend that at Forbes, "we believe in diversity of opinion and he [Lane] says he's against cancel culture. I'm against cancel culture. And I think we have to keep in mind, in terms of blacklisting, which happened in the '50s during the McCarthy era, harm the culture, harm the politics. We don't want that again.""
Yeah right, Steve...sheesh.
Forbes is populated by insentient gerbils afflicted with syphilis and ingrown toenails digging into their foreheads.
Treat them the same.
DONT BUY FORBES !!
Yep.
No vaccine for that virus.
Thanks
