So which newspaper is forced to run stories on topics they don't like?
I don't get how you could ever claim a private business should be forced to publish content they disagree with simply because they're a platform lots of people gravitate towards. You want to talk about erosion of rights? What next, scientific journals have to post bible passages alongside peer reviewed papers as a "counter-point"?
I agree with you. I don't think a private business should be forced to publish content they disagree with simply because they're a platform lots of people gravitate towards.
I'm not sure why you choose to 1) be antagonistic/hostile for no good reason, and 2) misinterpret my words, or worse, choose to put words in my mouth so you can go and be outraged about it.
It does seem like a good illustration of the point I was trying to make, though.

Should the delivery provider of a newspaper be allowed to hold the days newspapers hostage because there's and article he doesn't like?
The former issue is almost impossible to discuss rationally at this point (which is understandable), whereas the latter strikes me as ultimately more important but also more complicated. Discussing them together makes everything more difficult...
