NPR Trashes Free Speech. A Brief Response – by Matt Taibbi – TK News by Matt Taibbi
The guests for NPR s just-released On The Media episode about the dangers of free speech included Andrew Marantz, author of an article called, Free Speech is Killing Us ; P.E. Moskowitz, author of The Case Against Free Speech ; Susan Benesch, director of the Dangerous Speech Project ; and Berkeley professor John Powell, whose contribution was to rip John Stuart Mill s defense of free speech in On Liberty as wrong.
That s about right for NPR, which for years now has regularly congratulated itself for being a beacon of diversity while expunging every conceivable alternative point of view.
