Obama Says We Need More "Regulations and Standards" on the Practice of Free Speech on Social Media
Oh, look. It's just the former President of the United States of America slandering half the country as conspiracy theorists and saying that we need local and national, as well as political and cultural work, to make sure that everyone is agreeing on the same facts.

Yes, it's only conservatives who engage in conspiracy theories. We have to keep an eye out for those dangerous people on the right spreading misinformation. The legacy media would never engage in spreading unsubstantiated rumors as hard facts in order to undermine their political opponent.

Now - keep in mind - there is some valid speech restriction- ie yelling fire in a crowed theater.

In addition - Facebook - for example - has a right to limit any speech it desires.as it is a private company.
Just as I as an admin on FB pages - I have certain rules on FB pages I admin. Some are not using filthy language.
I have had people complain about that. - I tell them there are other pages they can go to.
Now, as far as FB censoring some of my own FB pages - well, that is why I am in the process of going to

So you must know all about Facebook. Is it a private publisher in your opinion?

1) NO - I do not know everything about Facebook
2) it is a private company - and they are allowed to make their own rules.
3) I do not like some of their rules
4) I am NOT required to use Facebook
5) I can take my business elsewhere
6) I know I dont pay the money directly - but they do have ads - which if
I am not on FB - will will not see them - thus thoses advertisers will end up paying less.
7)the USA is a Capitalist county - Thankgoodness

Let me rephrase the question. In your opinion, is FB a publisher?
