Editorial: Censoring PRESS TV

 Social media monster FACEBOOK is now censoring Iran's PRESS TV.

 


It's a shame for many reasons.  It's a shame when any outlet gets censored.  Censorship isn't an answer in a society that believes in free speech.  The real answer is always more speech.


It's a shame because FACEBOOK shouldn't be able to censor at all.  Are they a platform or not?


We see it as a huge shame because PRESS TV -- unlike the US outlets ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS, CNN and MSNBC -- actually covers the Iraq War on a regular basis.
