Romney: POS Trump is wrong to vilify the press. It's not the enemy, it's critical to democracy.

With free speech gone, every other freedom we have will start to fail.

So very true!

The Constitution's Bill of Rights is, as Obama once moaned, a listing of things govt can't do. It's not a listing of things the govt is supposed to supply for us.

It's govt that is the danger to our rights, not corporations or the media. Social media platforms have the right to censor conservative or liberal speech as they wish, just as newspapers do. Free speech is what happens in the absence of govt control.

You don't have the right to say whatever you want on twitter or facebook or wherever. Despite this there are few limits on speech on these platforms.
