Seems like they cherry picked one sentence, out of context, to base an entire article on. This is exactly what I would do if I were trying to chip away at support for the ACLU; fire off an article stating they are backing away from a core value, since most folks won't actually read the memo.

Have you read the memo yourself? I don't disagree that the post may be somewhat poorly presented, but it summarizes a large part of the memo in the one sentence it cites. The section "The impact of the proposed speech and the impact of its suppression" on pages 5 and 6 as well as the note on the bottom of page 5 of the memo are exactly what the main post is pointing out.
