"And for those who think the A&E Network, which airs Robertson’s Duck Dynasty program, is quashing his First Amendment rights: Robertson can say whatever he wants; no one could stop him from doing so on his own television network. But the First Amendment does not require the A&E to let Robertson represent it. He works for A&E, after all."
I think that is such an important point to make, that freedom of speech doesn't mean you get to say anything, anywhere, anytime. Good grief.
I think they'll print it. It's locally written copy, which is scarce on their op-ed page.
Thanks for pointing that section out. I had deleted it last night (haven't sent it in yet), thinking it was a distraction. I'm going to put it back in.
