Freedom Of Speech: You Can't Even Buy It!

In a recent blog, I mentioned that a new non-profit group called Freedom's Watch is running a series of TV ads on major news networks in support of the War in Iraq. NBC is refusing to run those ads. Powerline has the story here, but their summary is sufficient: at some of our cable networks, you can't even buy free speech!

I would expect this from CNN, not NBC... Still, it's a problem when you have a media outlet -- which is supposedly unbiased in its reporting of the news -- so blatantly taking one side of a political issue.

There's my two cents.
