Infowars/Alex Jones within an extremely short period of each other.

Of course, being logically consistent, the left denounced what appears to be corporate collusion to engage in what is effectively a private form of censorship of a political commentator.

Oh wait, no, they celebrated it because it was a right-winger they hate.

Businesses have the right to do business with whomever they want, so it should be completely legal for them to do this.

But regardless of how you feel about Alex Jones, this still is a disturbing precedent to be set by media companies.

Who is going to be next? The View? 😏
