“Freedom of the press” means you can choose between MSNBC, FOX and CNN. Anti-imperialist, anti-Zionist, anti-war reporting will not be tolerated. You’ll get banned or thrown in jail and accused of espionage.
This idea that Big Tech and the govt are trying to protect people from “state media” and “disinformation” is bollocks. You’ll never see a label under Reuters or BBC for taking money from HM’s Govt. You’ll never see CNN or the NYT banned on FB for lying about chemical weapons.
