Ah yes, just like how free speech means corporations must be allowed to bribe politicians.

But they’re people! Well, only in that one instance and not in any others that would allow punishments levied against people to be applied to businesses.

Like, if I sold poison that killed millions of people every year, I’d get the death penalty.

If you’re trying to get paid based one someone’s views or clicks, it’s not free.

Didn’t you know? Disabling ad blockers ensures free speech and apparently may also peacefully end the current crisis in the middle east… oh, did I mention it helps with world hunger too?

Good Independent journalism requires money. You can’t have everything for free you know. If you want to keep your privacy then you should pay for the news sources that you read.

Edit: I’m not american I do not know if USA today is good journalism or not. I am speaking more generally
