The left’s long war on conservative free speech

For three decades, the far-left has waged continuous war on conservative free speech in every available space.

They have organized militant boycott campaigns against the Right’s most effective advocates on talk radio — including Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Michael Savage, and Laura Ingraham. They pressured advertisers to withdraw from Dr. Laura Schlesinger’s national TV show when she was at the height of her popularity and mainstream commercial success.

Democrats have exploited national tragedies from the Oklahoma City bombing to the Tucson massacre to try to regulate lawful, peaceful conservative free speech and enact an Orwellian Fairness Doctrine under the guise of decency, diversity, and equality.

The “new” war on conservatives on the Internet is the same old attempt by desperate liberals to shut down their competitors in the marketplace of ideas. If you can’t beat ’em, deplatform ’em. That’s the progressive way.
