This is political censorship, corporate agenda driven. We are losing our free speech, because people do not take action as the vice comes down on freedoms one little thing at a time. I think it is bad enough we have the FCC acting as the content police, but it is very disturbing that a major media cable outlet would also do this. At least the progressives are showing some wisdom and not running to support MSNBC... at least not on dailykos yet.
This is the equivalent of what Google, MSN, and Yahoo have done in China, blocking certain content for political purposes. If paying for an advertisement to support the nations troops during a time of war is blocked on Television because it is too controversial, it raises the question what wouldn't or couldn't be controversial?
I don't know anything about FreedomWatch, but unless they have something like free porn on their website, I can't think of any reason for MSNBC to enforce political censorship against them. You can see what is being censored here and here. Stunning that is what is considered controversial to MSNBC. Some have called for a boycott, but considering their content is intellectually empty, I both hope and doubt there are any readers here who actually watch that channel, and the really low ratings tend to confirm how brain dead their content is.
