Let me know when Fox News gives Rachel Maddow a slot for her show or Breitbart starts hiring liberal columnists.

Can I show up at an evangelical church and demand a platform for a pro gay wedding speech on Sunday during services?


They have to prove their TOS was violated or it becomes an anti-trust issue.

Do you have any idea what an anti-trust issue even is? Even if the videos don't violate their ToS, it's not an anti-trust issue any more than say a Christian blog removing posts about Atheism.

Fill us in... educate us all what a TOS is and what limitations are available upon agreement. The degree of trust between 2 parties in a contract mean???? Yes a TOS is a contract you agree to by posting. Just like here.

The NYT gives us a clue - For the New Far Right, YouTube Has Become the New Talk Radio https://nyti.ms/2hrseWt

There's no way the lefties on Google or YouTube will let that happen. They will censor right wing speech and they won't let them develop the kind of foothold they have on talk radio.

Google is treading on dangerous grounds. DC will not permit itself to be so openly challenged

You can start with this...https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soci...public_utility

BTW, it's not just the right complaining. Google, Facebook, YouTube and Twitter are all treading a fine line right now.

Right wingers have guns. Power comes from the barrel of a gun. Watch what you are working towards.

Wait you want to kill me? And who says I don't have a gun?
