Idk should he be allowed to peddle unhelpful, unsubstantiated conspiracy theories?

Should Fox, Newsmax, OANN, Alex Jones, Tucker, Bannon, the deputy director the the FBI (in a prior gig, to be fair), the president of the United States (current & prior gigs), members of congress, MAGA influencers like Tim Pool, the company paying Tim Pool, the people paying the company that pays Tim Pool, etc, etc, etc, and etc, be allowed to?
Good question. Same answer to both. Glad we agree!
In your view, is that answer yes, or no?

I'd say yes, they all should be. The first amendment demands it.

Sure, yes works for me as long as we're consistent about it.
Holy doublestandards, Batman!
Saying the shooter was "one of them" has been the most common commentary from both sides. It's inaccurate to call either conclusion a conspiracy.
Shouldn't most of Fox News be off the air then? And most podcasts, left or right?
And what's changed because of it? Nothing?
