Well, in good old fashion, all these employees are free to "resign in protest". That would be a real show of conviction. This will, of course, never happen. Because they don't really believe any of what they are saying but want to simply virtue signal which, in their minds, gives them a victim status paired with moral superiority. It's another "brave" # revolt. The irony in all of this is breathtaking. A Supreme Court Judge should be deprived of her 1st amendment right in order to protect more important "rights"? Lol
I think this cancel culture needs to end. Let the employees stand by their convictions and resign. Let the book be published and be debated in the court of public opinion.
The Consortium Imposing the Growing Censorship Regime -- and Our New Live, Prime-Time Rumble Program – Glenn Greenwald - Oct. 28, 2022
We are launching a new live, one-hour, prime-time news broadcast. Armed with cable-sized budgets, it will be part of a network that Russell Brand has already debuted.
Thank you -- censorship in the US is nearly total. FYI -- GG tweets – extracted ~Oct. 28 period https://twitter.com/ggreenwald
• The regime of censorship being imposed on the internet – by a consortium of DC Dems, billionaire-funded "disinformation experts," the US Security State, and liberal employees of media corporations – is dangerously intensifying in ways I believe are not adequately understood.
• The people who work for the newspaper owned by Jeff Bezos and who write for the magazine controlled and funded by Laurene Powell Jobs (widow of Steve Jobs – she was a big ($6M+) donor to Hillary) are very worried this morning about the unprecedented crisis we face of billionaires buying and controlling the flow of news and information.
• The greatest damage in the West right now is being caused by self-anointed experts claiming to "combat disinformation," and NGOs funded by billionaires and the US/UK Security State dedicated to "anti-disinformation campaigns": @AtlanticCouncil, @DFRLab, @ISDglobal, @OCCRP, etc.
• And it wouldn't be possible without the vulgar use of corporate employees they call "reporters" whose only function is to troll the internet looking for establishment critics to silence: @oneunderscore__, @BrandyZadrozny, @TaylorLorenz, @RMac18, @MikeIsaac: censorship activists.
• Liberals spent decades suggesting (correctly as it turns out) that Reagan suffered various forms of senility, including onset of Alzheimer's, in his second term, but now they're trying to invent a new rule that it's bigoted against disabled people to discuss cognitive impairment
• Meanwhile, the cable show that has **the largest audience of younger Democrats** -- meaning self-identified Democrats between the ages of 24-54 -- is . . . the Tucker Carlson Tonight/Show, appearing 8 pm ET on Fox News
• Joe Biden often has no idea where he is, is often unable to string together two coherent sentences, and has started to fall asleep in the middle of interviews.
Why are you so bigoted against people “who struggle with a stutter”?
• Bernie Sanders condemns the House Progressives' original letter on Ukraine, says they were right to apologize for it and then retract it because it should never been issued at all, proceeds to recite Marco Rubio and Tom Cotton's views on Ukraine
• One of the signers of the now disgraced letter (that appallingly wondered if diplomacy might be a useful tool) -- @RepRaskin -- is commendably engaged in all sorts of self-abasement.
He's denouncing diplomacy advocates as -- transphobic colonialists
All this kind of thing does is inspire people like me--who would never be interested in reading this in a million years otherwise--want to buy and read it out of spite.
I see there are librarians who have signed onto this letter as well, as part of the "broader literary community of the United States." I wonder how many of them consider themselves strong defenders of the freedom to read and object to the many attempts at censorship taking place throughout the country right now in various school and public libraries.
Where can we find out more about what the book is about and the reasons for publishing or not publishing it? It is hard to understand why people who work in publishing want to prevent the publication of opinions and ideas they do not share.
Prof. Jeffrey Sachs says he is “pretty convinced [COVID-19] came out of US lab biotechnology” and warns that there is dangerous virus research taking place without public oversight.
Prof. Jeffrey Sachs is the Director of the Center for Sustainable Development at Columbia University and the President of the UN Sustainable Development Solutions Network. He has also served as the chair of the COVID-19 commission for leading medical journal the Lancet. Through his investigations as the head of the COVID-19 commission, Prof. Sachs has come to the conclusion that there is extremely dangerous biotechnology research being kept from public view, that the United States was supporting much of this research, and that it is very possible that SARS-CoV-2, the virus responsible for COVID-19, originated through dangerous virus research gone awry.

OMG these people need to grow up.

• That absurd spectacle of Dept. of Homeland Security appointing that deranged #Resistance fanatic (Nina Jankowicz) as Disinformation Czar was just one piece of this censorship regime uniting state and corporate power, funded by oligarchs, to shield propaganda from dissent: (Facebook, Tweeter, YouTube) -- Biden’s “Minster of Truth” Nina Jankowicz Participated in Secret NATO-Funded Cabal to Subvert Western Democracies Using Disinformation as Cover - https://www.revolver.news/2022/05/biden-minster-of-truth-nina-jankowicz-and-the-secret-nato-funded-cabal-to-subvert-western-democracies-using-disinformation-as-cover/

How ironic.

Another opinion that simply "MUST" be suppressed and censored ;-((
