I think there's a lot of evil in companies like Fox and Facebook, but they also are very good at making money by telling people what they want to hear. We could have a conversation about how the editors at Fox News should do their jobs, but I'm not sure I could suppress my gag reflex.

But their readers, like the NYT's, don't want open debate, and don't need to listen if they don't want to, I thought you said?

There are white supremacists in this country. Should the NYT give them space on its op-ed page? Everyone agrees that there is some line.
