It's not that they are supposed to be objective, but rather that they CLAIM to be objective, which is a lie.They are still licensed by the government, in part, to be journalists.

You are seriously and sadly mistaken if you think that your First Amendment rights extend to a private enterprise.
They can censor you till the cows come home, but at the end of the day, they have not affected your First Amendment rights at all.
If you know that they are censoring your views, avoid them. The best way to hurt a media source is by avoiding their product.
Ignore them and watch/read/view outlets that respect your views.

Not to be flip, but is Mark Steyn a licensed journalist? Is Dick Morris? Is Karl Rove? Or Rush Limbaugh? Dennis Prager or Michael Medved? Deciding who get’s into the Press Club and who doesn’t, in the future of the Fairness Doctrine world, gives me a sinking feeling.

No, they are licensed to broadcast. Therefore, they have a responstibility to serve the public truthfully -- and not as seditionists.

I had this happen earlier this year - before I gave up. They would delete me right away and there’s no way to complain. I never said anything vulgar either.
This was at Jake Tapper’s Political Punch site.

They have a moral and ethical responsibility, but not a legal one. Big difference.

I live near San Francisco, so don't confuse me with facts. By all public school, liberal definitions in this area I am being censored.

ABC News blogs are further left than Pravda or Mao’s Little Red Book.
Don’t worry about it. By doing so they are preaching to the choir.

To: unspun
They are a rotten cavity, I agree. And, along with Fox News (apparently), they are betting that Obama will win and will shower them with blessings from his munificent hand. They haven’t watched the video. The useful idiots are the first to be killed. And in a cult of personality, it is impossible to predict which of the useful idiots has lost his usefulness.

The decision to delete your posts is probably being made by someone barely out of school acting on his own. If you can find the right snail mail addressee and send a polite letter, you might get the situation corrected.

They have a moral and ethical responsibility, but not a legal one. Big difference. In the spirit of the law, they have a national responsibility.

they have a responstibility to serve the public truthfully But what is truth? (Laughingly turning away and returning to the Procurator's office).
To: SantaLuz
I have had the same experience there as well as at the CBS site.
To: SantaLuz
It's a DNC controlled news/website. Still, it's good to make their moderators earn their paycheck now and then. Keeps them from getting into other mischief in mother's basement.
