NY Times Whines About Republicans, First Amendment Interfering with Censorship Efforts

More censorship, now! The New York Times whined that free speech rights and Republicans are hurting efforts to combat so-called “misinformation” – or, put more simply, efforts to censor.

The Times published an article bemoaning stalled efforts to ramp up online censorship.

“The Fight Over Truth Also Has a Red State, Blue State Divide,” wrote liberal Times reporters Steven Lee Myers and Cecilia Kang. These supposed crusaders for “truth” did not mention that the “misinformation” of yesterday often becomes the widely accepted fact of today.

The Times seemingly critiqued constitutional rights. “The biggest hurdle to new regulations — regardless of the party pushing them — is the First Amendment,” The Times absurdly stated. How sad that the right to free speech is getting in the way of authoritarian censorship!
