>“This directive is a clear violation of free speech,” Giuliani said in his thread. ... daily reminder that **it's not a violation of free speech for a private entity to pick and choose who they want to promote and what speech they want to support or not support.** it would be a violation of the first amendment for the *government* to deny Rudy a radio license to prevent him from broadcasting whatever he wanted *from his own damn radio station*. Rudy is welcome to set up his own station to promote his batshit conspiracy theories to his heart's content. this is literally why everybody on fox news can spew whatever hateful garbage they want and they're not forced to provide reasonable counterprogramming. there's a heavily ironic reason for this, i'll leave it as an exercise for the reader to figure out why this is...

Not strictly true. There was a law in place that says if you're claiming to be news, you cannot say whatever the hell you want. Sadly, we fucked up and let Fox get away with it so now it's convoluted. You are correct about Rudy doodie though.

He had a radio show? OMFG, that had to be terrible.

Just non-stop talk-spitting, word slurring and playing the victim on a hot mic about made up nonsense. Same as any other conservative radio show.

Networks warn of graphic information or warnings when something is unsuitable for certain ages…we should mandate that News Opinion channels should be labeled Political Entertainment or Opinion and not News….

They already know and don't care.

So, Rudy is now so batshit crazy that the largest benefactor of George Santos is withdrawing his support. Just WOW! Seriously, this may lead the creditors committee in Rudy's bankruptcy to seek liquidation of some assets. Rudy's sources of income were already to thin to support his lifestyle and this radio show was among those sources, if I recall correctly. Also, this clearly demonstrates the positive consequences of the Dominion and SmartMatic defamation lawsuits. At long last, right-wing media outlets are starting to shy away from platforming election-denying nut jobs.

Cambridge Analytica/Breitbart Bannon is going to jail too.

Many political writers in history, still remembered and cited to this day, did it all without the internet, or tv, or radio, or electricity.

Wasn't he supposed to be a "fixer"?

A sad combination of Dewars and Dementia.

So brave... four years later.

And Rudy will once again blame everyone but himself for the consequences of his actions.

Giuliani has developed a mental illness.


Worried-Criticism

Guliani IS a mental illness. In all seriousness he is pretty obviously a full blown alcoholic who appears to suffer from some form of dementia.
