More on Free Speech

And just to be clear, I'm not just angry at hypocritical liberals, who say they love free speech but who are perfectly willing to shut up conservatives. I am equally annoyed at this story about the Republican chairman of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, who wants to pressure PBS and others to de-liberalize.

Look, if you de-regulate and de-subsidize, then Americans can decide for themselves what they want to watch. If I don't like nanny-statism coming from the Left, what makes you think I want it coming from the Right? Liberal bias is already sending CNN, the New York Times and the L.A. Times down the toilet without government help. Just shut up and let the system work.
