This is a bad take, @brianstelter.

First, no one’s right to “speech” is threatened here. There is no right to be paid to be on TV.

Second, what do you mean “meet her comments with more speech”? What political debate is to be had around “Ha ha, you got rejected by UCLA, loser”? https://t.co/kZUmge4zUp

It’s amazing how consistently folks misinterpret the idea of “freedom of speech” to implicitly mean “freedom to a platform”. And almost as consistently apply that standard only to conservative speakers, whereas liberal ones get the boot soon as possible if they say something untoward.
