B-Man Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 Free speech hangs in the balance in 3 Supreme Court cases The Hill, by Jonathan Turley This month, the Supreme Court reviewed a trifecta of free speech cases that has government and civil libertarians alike on edge. While each of the cases raises an insular issue, they collectively run across the waterfront of free speech controversies facing this country. For some of us, what was most chilling from oral arguments were the sentiments voiced by justices on the left of the court, particularly Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson. The court may now be reflecting the shift among liberal scholars and politicians away from freedom of speech and in favor of greater government speech regulation https://thehill.com/opinion/judiciary/4551132-free-speech-hangs-in-the-balance-in-three-supreme-court-cases/ . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Man Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 '60 Minutes' Gets Caught Red-Handed After Interview With 'Misinformation Expert' Leave it to "60 Minutes" to bring on the leader of a "misinformation research group" and then fail to disclose all the pertinent details of her background.

The background of this story involves the following interview, in which Starbird and "60 Minutes'" Lesley Stahl complain that X (formerly Twitter) wasn't at their beck and call to censor content they deem to be "misinformation. https://redstate.com/bonchie/2024/03/26/60-minutes-gets-caught-red-handed-not-disclosing-background-of-disinformation-expert-n2171966 . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B-Man Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 GOOD: Nearly 5,000 want Kyle Rittenhouse event at Kent State canceled; university backs free speech. Two online petitions call for canceling an upcoming Kyle Rittenhouse event at Kent State University, arguing the event is insensitive in light of the school’s history with “gun violence.” They have garnered nearly 5,000 signatures in recent weeks. The petitions also accuse Rittenhouse of “involvement in politically motivated acts of gun violence” and argue his presence would pose difficulties “for many of our minority communities.” https://www.thecollegefix.com/nearly-5000-want-kyle-rittenhouse-event-at-kent-state-canceled-university-backs-free-speech/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
