| Message | This is an affront to our democracy and our Democratic values of the freedom of speech and freedom of the press! While I agree that journalists should do their research and try to promote the truth, I do not believe that we should force them to do so, nor do I believe that doing so is constitutional nor ethical. We oppose this completely. |
