Corporate media wants fascism, folks. Been saying it for a while. They will lay out the red carpet for it and line it up with millions of dollars.

Of all things, 'The Five Families' troubled me, I liked Chris's 2020 election coverage and was ignorant on Andrew. Their dad Mario's cited in the book denying the Mafia's existence, calls it anti-Italian bigotry—only rumors he had involvement, but he knew it was real, and that didn't sit right.

So much to do when we oust these chucklefucks: add "fix the media" to the growing list, e.g., re-enact a fairness doctrine, but stronger, develop (and enforce) ownership strictures to keep billionaires looking for favors away from any sort of news outlet. That's a start

Okay, if you believe free speech is absolute- If I cause a stampede in a crowd that gets people killed by screaming FIRE! am I guilty of anything??? All I did was ‘speak’, but people panicked and someone died So, that’s OK by you?

Sure - let’s go to the most extreme example. Let’s look at the Aurora theater shooting: people yelling about an active shooter did not cause a panic - the actual active shooter caused the panic. He was charged with many crimes - causing a panic was not one of them. This does not mean he can’t be

sued civilly and held civilly responsible, but it wasn’t a crime. Now, are you claiming something said on TV or the internet is going to cause a panic?

But you said free speech! That’s all I did, what did I do in civil law- disturb the peace? But that can be speech also. And are you saying if it’s said on TV, that makes in different from free speech? I think your absolute free speech idea has some serious difficulties 😆

Unless you're talking about directly threatening an individual or a very small, specific group, the test is if the speech is "intended to and likely to incite *imminent* lawless action". Where "imminent" is defined to be basically "right now". 1/

2/ any less a stricture on 1st Amendment rights than yelling fire in a crowded theater. Saying there is no method to fix the damage done by the likes of Fox and News Max is tantamount to obeying in advance. The effort needs be made.

Learn to thread your skeets. Yelling fire in a crowded theater is protected speech. The idea that it isn’t is dicta from a case about protesting the draft that was overruled 50+ years ago. Allowing Trump to regulate the press is obeying in advance. Protecting the Constitution is not.
