Also, does anyone else find it hilarious that she is complaining about this when her publisher ONLY publishes books that have the "right" conservative viewpoint?
 
I think at this point the only way this stops if the right turns it back on the left... mutual assured destruction

Wait, so you don't think Amazon has the right to refuse advertisement money? You think they should take advertisement money from everyone? I mean I guess TV should just be countless commercials, I shouldn't have to pay for a slot.

So amazon should run everyone's ads with no consideration?

You think that's how a business would operate just running ads for everyone who wants to run an ad?

Amazon decided they didnt want to run ads for something that had the wrong opinion.

That's their right.

That's how open speech gets stifled in this country

I don't recall Amazon saying they wouldn't run the ad because it had the wrong opinion?

I believe the reasoning is

"It contains elements that may not be appropriate for all audiences, which may include ad copy/book content that infers or claims to diagnose, treat, or question sexual orientation. Hence, this campaign will not be allowed to be advertised."

Which is not a wrong opinion. It's a wrong fact that you can do any of those things.

To me this seems like a publicity stunt perpetrated by a smart publisher to get a whole lot of dumb people to buy a bad book.

and can't believe we live in such a country that would do such a thing like get rid of blackface in an old show you don't even watch

You've defended every single restriction to speech so far.

Any thoughts.on Minnesota banning books posted earlier?

The President has threatened criminal charges against a private citizen for publishing a book. Seems like that would be against free speech.
 
The Dixie Chicks are now just "The Chicks".
