Tony Mead: In Solidarity with Alex Jones – Sandy Hook becomes a Litmus Test pitting Freedom of Speech against Internet Censorship
Mr. President,
Everyone is quite aware that we have the right to Freedom of Speech, but seems to overlook the fact that we also have the right to Freedom of the Press. This doesn't mean that the social media giants have rights. It means that WE, THE PEOPLE, have rights to have access to and to distribute information. These rights were granted long before the internet and have always been restricted by rules of libel, threats of violence, and the disclosure of information that could be detrimental to National Security.
