Our local newspaper is VERY big on freedom.
Freedom of the press... freedom of THEIR opinions... (even to the point of lies) and, of course, freedom to censor those they disagree with.
As mentioned below, Brancaccio's request for people to "start talkin!" because he's"listening." is limited only to those he wants to hear from. Those he doesn't want to hear? Well, he squelches their voice to silence.
I've noticed an intrepid poster over there, one of many daring to stand up to the fringe-left propaganda of our local fish wrapper. And that person's posts were almost completely obliterated this morning, regardless of content.
It's kind of like a local version of BDS. Hatred for dissenting viewpoints can be a terrible thing.
This paper expresses that hatred in a variety of ways. Fringe leftist nut job John Laird, editorial page editor and a propagandist in ways that would make Minister Goebbels blush is a case in point.
And now, Brancaccio has again joined the cast of those who would silence opposition to his paper's positions and agenda.
Gee. I bet he's proud of himself this morning. His actions and those of the Iranian secret police have a lot in common.
