CNN Writer says Kanye West should be "Denied his Right To Express His Opinion"

A CNN op-ed piece says Kanye West should not be allowed to have a "platform" to express his opinion.

"The time has come to stop amplifying his platform when he continues to misconstrue facts and distract the public from truth," writes Ernest Owens, editor of Philadelphia magazine's G Philly and CEO of Ernest Media Empire, LLC.

"Shutting him down is not a matter of censoring opinions; it's a matter of being responsible in how we elevate or endorse the cult of celebrity in situations that further espouse toxic lies. At this point, any outlet that continues to allow Kanye West a platform to knowingly speak such misinformation is either enabling the former or exploiting his celebrity status for ratings," Owens said.

Owens then says this: Shut down Kanye altogether.

Progressives admit they oppose Free Speech and Ernest Owens proves it.

One more day and the Unhinged Progressives cannot help but to show who they are Totalitarians !

"Shutting him down is not a matter of censoring opinions"

Do these people even listen to themselves?? Apparently not!

The modern klan doesn't even put on the hoods anymore. They just openly tell blacks to sit down and shut up boy.

Owen's statement of course implies that the Democrats are automatically truthful which is outrageous on its own and that this somehow gives someone whoever that may be to somehow silence an American citizen.Bill of Rights is a problem for Democrats.

The blacklash by the left against a minority trying to leave the plantation shows their true colors.

Uhh, no. That's definitely not what he said. He said to stop giving Kanye West undue attention, not to shut him up. He can still express his opinions, but let's be honest: the opinions of a rapper are not news, and do not deserve to be marketed as such, regardless of what those opinions are.

These are the same Stalinst liberals who were ghetty and overjoyed when NBC falsely claimed Mueller had wire tapped the Whitehouse, which would be a police state.

If this comes from CNN why shouldn't they be shut down for egregious display of modern day oppression and slavery. They themselves are using their platform to get a rally going to shut down one voice. Could this one voice be so damaging to American belief system better shut him up? In a day and age when the main mantra of the day is equal rights and equality for everyone this is what comes out of the wood works. I don't believe in equal rights for everyone but I do believe everyone is allowed to have their say.

Same logic Con. Does Outlaw not have the right to tell CNN to go f*ck itself for not wearing the white hoods anymore?

Free speech does not guarantee anyone a platform (let alone a particular, privately financed one). This is not a call for censorship in the literal sense, then, but it's still an obvious effort to limit the reach of an opposing viewpoint both through de-platforming, misrepresentation, and ad-hominem.
