To refer to this as censorship is complete collectivism. No one has any obligation to finance the free speech of those that they do not agree with. If you're going to define this as censorship (which I think would be improper), there is nothing wrong with censorship. You may not agree with this particular choice of the use of private property but there is nothing wrong with it in principle.
@mrrobotica These people parade as journalists. There is a code among good journalists that you must remain objective. Call it what you want. But don't get on your high horse with me.
"“Censorship” is a term pertaining only to governmental action. No private action is censorship. No private individual or agency can silence a man or suppress a publication; only the government can do so. The freedom of speech of private individuals includes the right not to agree, not to listen and not to finance one’s own antagonists."
@mrrobotica Don't be an Ayn Rand sheep. She was good but no better than me. There are many forms of censorship. Just do a little more research on the subject. Censorship occurs when anyone in the position of power practices control over your speech. If you work for a publisher and the editor censors your writing he is exercising control and censorship. It can be a government or any other form of controlling power. It takes an open minded person to interact with me.
@ArtisanTony You can define words however you want but if that is how you define censorship, there is nothing inherently wrong with it. If censorship includes freely using your private property as you please, yes that is exercising control, but it's also completely fine. With you're definition you've turned censorship into a benign word. Don't try to drag along the negative connotations when you've disposed of the definition of the word that is the source of those connotations.
This RIGHT SCOOP response to me: "... I understand your feelings. Sarah Palin has a better chance of being on the list than Ron Paul. The owner of the blog is free to do whatever he/she wants. That is how blogs operate. It isn't about fairness. It is about personal opinions. Like talk radio. They are the same way!..."
Sad. He deserves better treatment than this even if you disagree with his positions. The last thing I want to do is start a flame-war but treatment like this could drive the congressman to do exactly what these outlets profess they don't want...a third party candidacy that could end up with President Obama getting a Clinton-like (1992) victory with the Perot factor.
The Media, all of them, has Romney selected and he get 1st billing every time. All articles completely LEAVE OUT pictures, comments, and articles coming from or About Ron Paul. If he is still on the ballot when I get to vote, he will be my choice just to piss off the media.
Tony, Tony, (shakes head) tisk, tisk (shakes finger).......what a trouble maker! lol :)
