No doubt ‘misinformation’ is also labelled conservative, GOP, or patriotic.\\Sounds like a perfect set up for a gestapo-like news media.

This is exactly what our Founders sought to prohibit in the first amendment. Unfortunately, our feckless Supreme Court will allow this under the banner of the first amendment. They will protect the banning of misinformation as an exercise of free speech by the govt and their social media minions.

In other words, Psaki is exercising her first amendment right to free speech in issuing the ban. (This is how lawyers think: free speech is the justification for censorship.)
