[QUOTE="Method Mensch, post: 4742048, member: 71846"] Our freedom of speech is protected by the 1st amendment. If either The Flat Earth Society wants to pass literature out on the sidewalk or the Church of Satan wants to recruit people to their faith at the town park, the 1st amendment protects them. This is different. If Twitter or Facebook shut you off, you can either create your own social media website or find some other website to migrate to. There is also a difference between how traditional news organizations operate and how social media sites operate. A traditional news operation has fact checkers, editors, and others that work to put out a story. There is no similar process in social media. People can post what they want to, without any checks and balances, without regard to either the intent or veracity behind it. After the fact, a social media site can cut you off, or slap a notice on your post that flags it as possibly counterfactual or some similar warning. [/QUOTE]
