Media Matters for America shows left's regard for free speech

The Soros-funded leftwing nuts at Media Matters for America are latching on to the case of "Spocko" a blogger who posted audio recordings of KSFO (San Francisco, "Frisco") hosts Melanie Morgan and Brian Sussman to his website. Those may have been covered by fair use, but ABC/Disney (owners of the station) sent a cease and desist letter anyway and got "Spocko"'s site pulled.

David Brock of MMFA chimes in:

We are also gravely concerned that ABC/Disney has engaged in what appears to be corporate intimidation in an effort to silence the voices of those Americans who would dare to criticize this type of dangerous and un-American rhetoric.

I might somewhat agree with them. However, given MMFA's past statements I'm almost 99% sure that the samples they provide were taken out of context. And, MMFA is engaged in their own form of intimidation and makes it clear in the rest of their piece that they support free speech - just as long as it's not what they incorrectly refer to as "hate" speech. Those "liberals" who actually believe in things like free speech might want to read between the lines of MMFA's letter to see what they really support.

UPDATE: There's much, much, much more than you want to know about this issue here. It does indeed look like some of the quotes provided were taken out of context. Also, sleazeball Mike Stark is involved in this matter.
