Boy this is interesting legal ground. An undeclared candidate, giving a political speech, while being employed by a news outlet, possibly being coved by opposing media channels, etc, etc...???

That is new how?
Only declared candidates can give political speeches?
When did they change the first amendment then?

Operative words: “Undeclared candidate”.

Sarah is a private citizen. She is undeclared, therefore she is, duh, *not* a candidate and has no special limits on her speech.

Fox News can broadcast just about anything they want on cable except porn and a couple other things. They decide what will interest their viewers. Same goes for the other channels.

So, what's your beef? What is it, exactly, that's you find unclear?

Freedom got your tongue?

No...a private citizen, employed by a news agency for POLITICAL COMMENT, giving a political speech...

Fixed with PROPER context.

How is it "interesting" legal ground? She's undeclared, and speaking before a gathering that is not a political party, so there goes the "partisan" argument. So, what's the issue?

A little FRiendly advice. Next time use a [/sarc] tag or you may end up as a whiff of ozone.
