Why Is The Media Covering Up Hillary’s Illness?
Farhad Manjoo is a reporter for the New York Times who writes about tech issues. His latest passion is a beef with free speech, though of course as a leftist, he would never frame it that way.
More specifically, Manjoo is upset that a Google search about Hillarys health turns up what he calls conspiracy theories. And because hes decided the negative information available on line about her health is unfounded, Google should fix the problem.
Now as a quick aside, the point isnt even whether something is a conspiracy theory, or not. Free speech means that if people want to put hard facts up on the Internet, they can. And if people want to put conspiracy theories on the Internet, they can as well.
And, as another aside, Mr. Manjoo is not the arbiter of what is fact and what is fiction, or a conspiracy theory as he calls it. Thats the whole point of free speech. When speech is censored, who does the censoring? Who decides what is acceptable speech and what is unacceptable? That is the slippery slope we should not step on (though its a bit late for that warning since were already sliding and picking up speed with black ice ahead when October rolls around, America loses control of the Internet, and the vacuum is filled by countries that are bad actors.)
Breitbart reports:
Go online and put down, Hillary Clinton illness, and take a look at the videos yourself, Rudy Giuliani recently said on Fox News, during an argument about how sick Clinton really is.
Manjoo of the Times called for Google to fix the problem of search results possibly hurting the Democratic nominee.
Google should fix this. It shouldnt give quarter to conspiracy theorists, Manjoo tweeted.
Democrats = leftists = progressives = fascists.
