So, you want the gov't deciding what your newspaper prints? Now I see why you are a leftist. Pravda must have been your favorite "newspaper" back when the Communists controlled it.

If anything is publicly held, then it would not be censorable
Oh yeah? There is only limited space for print in a newspaper. Who decides what goes into it? Someone must. Websites are larger, but ultimately they have limits too.

and then opinions contrary to yours might reach an audience.
Uh, you do seem to be on this site. This seems to contradict your thesis.

Oh, have you noticed just how many LW sites there are out there? Don't answer "No"; you've provided links to many.

The problem, boy, comes when the gov't decides what can and cannot be printed because the gov't can impose its choice on everyone.

That is NOT the same as an editor or webmaster deciding what or who is allowed on their site.
