Imagine being a supposed journalist that views free speech as a threat to the mainstream media groupthink. You don't have to imagine hard because we now have the example of Steve Coll of the New Yorker magazine who unashamedly proclaims that free speech is a threat to what he perceives as journalism, namely the liberal narrative that he wants to see maintaining a monopoly on public information.

Coll isn't just a magazine writer -- he's the dean of the Columbia School of Journalism, and a former managing editor of The Washington Post. And yet, he still presented free speech as a "weaponized" threat to the liberal media elite on Monday's Morning Joe show during an interview with Kasie Hunt.

"Journalism" has been weaponized against free speech for decades.
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

I guess this dipshit never heard the expression, "The pen is mightier than the sword.
For unvaccinated, we are looking at a winter of severe illness and death — if you’re unvaccinated — for themselves, their families, and the hospitals they’ll soon overwhelm. Sloe Joe Biteme 12/16
I will NOT comply.
