    This article was originally published by Steve Watson at Summit News under the title: Panicked CNN Guest Wonders “How We’re Going To Control The Channels Of Communications In This Country”

    A CNN talking head declared Sunday that if Elon Musk is allowed to buy Twitter, the platform will have to be government regulated to prevent ‘discourse’ being open and free, and not subject to establishment-controlled censorship.

    While discussing the Musk take-over on CNN’s potato time with Brain Stelter, “media analyst” David Zurawik proclaimed that Musk is “dangerous” and shouldn’t be allowed to restore free speech on the platform.

    Zurawik suggested that the U.S. look to Europe, which has recently brought in new laws to limit social media and even threatened to ban Twitter if Musk doesn’t play ball.

    “There’s a bigger problem here about how we’re going to control the channels of communications in this country,” Zurawik frothed, panicking at the notion of the likes of CNN not being able to dictate what Americans think.

    “This is dangerous! We can’t think anymore in this country!” Zurawik whined, adding “I’m serious! We don’t have people in Congress who can make regulations, that can make it work.”

    “I think we can look to the Western countries in Europe for how they are trying to limit it. But you need controls on this,” the talking slap head continued.

    “You need regulation. You cannot let these guys control discourse in this country or we are headed to hell,” Zurawik further suggested.

    “We are there,” he added, further claiming that “Trump opened the gates of hell and now they’re chasing us down.”

    “We gave over what amounts to our airwaves or our internet waves to Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk, and we are in so much trouble because those guys believe in making money,” he said.

    Watch:

    Zurawik repeated a talking point that Hillary Clinton raised last week, championing Europe for cracking down on ‘disinformation’:

    And now, just a week later, Biden’s Department of Homeland Security has rolled out a literal Ministry of Truth, headed up by a deranged partisan who truly believes that anything she disagrees with is hate speech.

    Musk was exactly right when he declared that the Democratic Party “has been hijacked by extremists.”

      1. OMG !!! Can you believe that there might be unrestricted free speech & exchange of ideas with our Marxist intervention ???
        What a novel revolutionary idea. Imagine what could happen.
        We need to support Musk & stop Brandon’s Ministry of Truth. It is funny how for 4+ years we heard how Trump was a Nazi & wanted to be a dictator …. Meanwhile back at the ranch everything that the accuse others of….is actually what they are engaged in. This entire Administration needs to be sent packing ASAP.

        • So what are you going to do? Vote them out? HAHA HAHA HA HA

          • r/k breeding strategies and religion are means of organizing, kryptonite to secular mores.

            Let them collapse under the weight of their ghost of Kiev arguments, found where fake news originates. There are places where you can post a catchy saying or meme, and it will appear in a radio program.

            But, don’t freely post your marketable, intellectual property.

            • I don’t understand. This fake news factory is up in arms about controlling information to the masses? I would be trying to figure out another way of getting the ratings above the level of “laughingstock”. They have to be delusional. These people WOULD NOT tell the truth for anything.
              I remember reading a comment to an article on this sight. The commenter said that “there are 15 million big game hunters in the US. That means there are 15 million snipers” it sounded to me like a reality check for those fools but they just don’t ever stop lying. Kinda like the angel that was removed from his lofty position in heaven for doing the same thing. Makes ya wonder what they really believe in

      2. How about just let free speech actually be free speech? If you had honest, open communication and good ideas instead of lies and spin, CNN would become more successful.

      3. In the article you mentioned “deranged partisan” to describe the new “arbiter of truth”. That “deranged partisan” is perfectly descriptive of many folks that seek to control your life through govt. power. Demonrats predominate in that field but some RINOs also qualify. I refer to all of them as AINOs ( Americans in Name Only).

      4. No need to worry, everyone knows the Republicans will overwhelmingly sweep the upcoming elections with the Democrats being left by the wayside.

      5. More EU/Europhile First blather from the wokist left on CNN.

        Americans can’t be allowed to think for themselves, but look to Europe First then ‘lead’ the world in adopting Europe First policies.

        The leftist Globalist Socialists can barely conceal America Last sentiment anymore.

      6. This is a fascinating debate and points to the blinders most Americans wear when it comes to knowing about the world – and their place in it.

        First off, social media and the internet are very recent phenomena. Never in the course of human history have people been able to communicate in real time with anywhere else in the world. This has profound consequences. It takes grotesque arrogance to make proclamations of American-style ‘liberty’ and ascribe it to the rest of the world.

        In practical terms, going on about the rights of gays and trans (very much an American obsession) does not translate into the majority of the world’s cultures. Also claiming you have a right to always have a gun, or say whatever you like, does not translate into most of the world’s legal systems.

        Print media was always edited media. Even a leaflet handed out by a bunch of Nazis would have probably been spelt correctly. That isn’t the case with Twitter or other social media. Any moron can spew forth their hate and ignorance without any editing. These moronic rants and scribblings are then shared with the entire planet. That isn’t a human right. Many of these hateful rants have led to acts of violence and unrest. Look at how much hate and violence radical Muslims have been spewing forth since 2001. To be frank, the utterly uncivilised garbage put out by ‘black activists’ during the BLM riots on social media has not enriched humanity.

        In short, social media has given too much voice to people who really should be living under a rock – the place where they used to live 20 years ago because anybody with literacy skills would have never published their mouth farts online or in print.

        • I believe your understanding of “freedom” is flawed. In your 4th paragraph you introduce some tyrannical ideas. You, nor any other person, has a right to NOT be insulted. My “rants & scribblings” may be ignored by you, but you have NO right to deny my free speech. The “acts of violence and unrest” should be attributed to (with resulting arrests) the perpetrators. Adults learn to behave properly (some of us later than we would have liked) or society induces terrible Karma. I ignore the truly delusional, but otherwise cogent & rational thinkers like you get my goat sometimes.

        • ‘These moronic rants and scribblings are then shared with the entire planet”

          I agree.

          They absolutely need to be censored and kept out of the public forum.

          As long as I’m the one doing the censoring and not you or someone else.

      7. The Queen of cringe looks like a witch that was set on fire. Omg she is so full of hate. The eyes are the window to the soul and she does not have one!
