    Freedom of the press doesn't work on his employer. His paper has every right to publish what it wants, and if he wanted to be a snarky jerk about it, his employer had every right to fire him. Same as always...

    That's the joke.

    I realize you don't get it because I'm actually making fun of you.
    Ironic...

    Or it could be that every time you get made as a fucking retard you always reply with..."That's the joke"
    No. Here I'll type slowly so you get it. You guys have shitposted about people getting fired for speaking their mind and throwing a fit about the first amendment. Especially sledog and the like.

    Link of me throwing a fit about people getting fired over the first amendment...

    The only topic I can remember recently on here about that is Roseanne. And I supported the networks decision, because they had the right to do whatever the fuck they wanted. Just like I would for any private business as long as it's actions aren't federally outlawed, like discriminating protected classes. The first amendment does protect you from government action on free speech, but it doesn't protect you from social and employment consequences of said speech. That has always been my position.

    The argumemt has always been that these companies are usually pussies for pandering to sjws, not that they can't do whatever they want


    Jesus fucking christ


    If I start yelling about how Jews need to be incinerated my company can fire me just fine, but I'm not gonna be arrested.


    Everyone but leftists knows and agrees about this.

    A cartoonist is not a journalist. He draws pictures for a living. I never thought this would need to be explained, and yet, here we are. Jesus fucking Christ.

    He’s lucky He was only fired. For in some countries, it can be much worse.
