Michael Smerconish argues that if a presidential speech is important enough to analyze and fact-check afterward, it's important enough to air in full first. He makes the case that Americans don't need to be shielded from political speech—they need the opportunity to hear it and judge it for themselves.

This is almost heretical thinking from someone on the Left.
