CNBC cuts off live coverage of Trump speaking about the election results, because, says Shepherd Smith, “what he’s saying is absolutely untrue”

[bripat9643]

So doesn’t that right also apply to a news network?

If you are splitting legal hairs yes

but if you want 71 million Americans to stop calling the lying lib media the lying lib media they will have to clean up their act

They can do it, but thene they have no right to call themselves "a news outlet." They are propaganda organs.

Ignoring is one thing. Censorship is another. No matter how hard you try, you can't alter the fact the fake news media censored Trump

How are they different?

it takes critical thinking skills to know that,, sadly you lack that,,

Critical thinking would disabuse the notion of censorship here.

I swear, it has to be one of the most overused and abused concepts ever.

It's not that you lack critical thinking skills, it's that you lack basic English skills.

One cannot censor by refusing to broadcast speech. No one is under any obligation to do so.

The solution is easy. Stop lying.

The lying lib news media does not have the moral right to decide what the public can or cannot hear

They may not but they have the ability.

If the news media has the freedom to ignore Trump, there can be no legitimate accusation of censorship of him.

Yes there can

and we will continue to condemn the lib news medio on it

 

[colfax_m]

Yes there can

Trump’s right to speak does not override CNBC’s right to ignore.

It’s not censorship. Trump spoke all the same whether it was broadcast on that channel or not.

 

[Mac-7]

They may not but they have the ability.

Translation: the means justify the ends

That's exactly how censorship works, dumbass.

No. Censorship is when you are not permitted to speak. Trump can speak. He did speak. Not censorship.

It's amazing what you support as long as it furthers your own goals.

Die you ******* fascist asshole.

 

[colfax_m]

News media has never been obligated to cover every word that the president says.

It’s a fascist attitude that would imagine they do.

Never have they decided to cut off a president in mid speech because they disagree with him.

If you can't see the danger in that then you really are nothing but an SJW tool, and will make the world a far far better place when you are 6 feet ******* under it.

America is turning the page...

People do this all the time. I'm simply discussing the facts of the situation.

Would you be upset if there was a way to simply cut off all politicians when they start lying?

 

[Mac-7]

No, because half-educated lying lib journalists are not elected to filter free speech
