Well this is disconcerting.
The First Amendment doesn't guarantee you the rights you think it does https://t.co/VJhU4HPqN6 pic.twitter.com/mRXJBQFLHS

Maybe CNN should just leave the First Amendment to the adults.
Oh and just FYI, we did read the “article” and it’s as condescending as you would expect. Their points are valid, for example being suspended on Twitter is not against your First Amendment rights, but really most people understand the difference.
Unless of course they were writing this for their Democratic/Leftist base, and in that case they should have gone a step further and used puppets and crayons.
The rest of us though – no thanks.
@CNNPolitics You're an obviously #fakenews propaganda tool of DNC hiding behind Freedom of the Press. Nothing you report is believed by the well informed

This may well be written in the “About” section of their website.
@CNNPolitics It's written in English. Seems pretty clear.

But it’s sorta in cursive!
@CNNPolitics Fuck you, it most certainly does.

Not entirely untrue.
@CNNPolitics CNN – Trying to generate hits at the expense of the First Amendment with a preemptive false equivalency for Trump's upcoming attacks on it!?

And this is what they were REALLY doing, generating clickbait by exploiting the First Amendment knowing people would be outraged and click it.
Heck we even wrote about it; of course we are making fun of them but still.
@CNNPolitics Those few words are everything if you love freedom. Such a sophomoric title

Then again they are a sophomoric outlet.
