Again: legally, sure. But we're discussing here not "critics" but people attempting to reduce the number of voices in the marketplace of ideas by making press outlets commercially unviable even when they have a substantial audience of willing listeners. Is that never a bad thing?

No Dan. I believe you’re broadly in favor of free speech. You’re the one using “my way or the highway” rhetoric throughout this conversation.

So, do you dispute that your position leads to fewer speakers in the marketplace, and for reasons other than that there was no longer an audience for their ideas?

I'm all for being able to boycott the press. And criticize them. And make fun of them. As long as we can do all of that, I am good.

Primary boycott, sure. Most people already only read what they want to hear. That's not the issue.
