now we all know Alex Jones is kinda batshit crazy but if this isn't censorship well then I do not know what is.
First they took down the two black Trump supporting women now this. Seems to be a patern. No news on anythign from the left being removed like some of the wacked out ANTIFA stuff
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/alex-jones-youtube-channel-facebook-content-removed-2018-08-06/


Aren't those private companies that can remove anything they determine violates their terms of service?


They are publicly traded? Just like newspapers.


They also have terms of service that allow them to determine what is acceptable and not acceptable for their site. To be fair, I don't go there for news, or politics, or paranoid assholes like Alex Jones, or bullshit memes, so at this point in it's existence, I've blocked roughly every weirdo left and right wing bullshit site I come across...so I don't have to see that shit anyway.

Freedom of press. Create your own large company to give yourself a voice. Seems simple.


So do we want an independent press or one controlled by party/ideology as it is over in Europe?
Each political party publishes its own paper. I thought we where above that shit, you freedom of information.
I am not defending what Jones says just his right to say it.

No one is preventing his ability to say this stuff. He wouldn’t be allowed to post any of that shit into an op piece in the Chicago tribute either. That doesn’t mean he is being censored.

Just like if twitter banned trump, that wouldn’t be censorship either.

Don't worry. We have preemptively banned Infowars from CFMB.

Sincerely,

See, there is no ONE PRESS. For every HuffPo there is a Breitbart.
