I’m not sure how this can be a free speech issue being that these are private companies.

There’s got to be something more than that.

The TV networks are private companies, too. Should they be allowed to simply omit whatever news doesn’t suit their leftist agenda, or misreport facts? You could say “well, we don’t have to watch them” - and that’s true, but I think there’s also an issue of acting for the greater good here. They’re a major information delivery system and that should come with SOME responsibility for fairness - either that or force themselves to identify themselves as the democrat propaganda machines that they are.

That is what they do now.

"Should they be allowed to simply omit whatever news doesn’t suit their leftist agenda, or misreport facts?"

That's pretty much what most of them do now anyway. The problem is that they and their Demonrat enablers don't like competition from the new media raining on their little Socialist/Marxist/Progressive parade and spoiling their narrative with the sheeple.
