Milo Quizzes White House Press Secretary On Free Speech

Am I the only one who feels that Milo can come off as nothing more than a pretentious prick sometimes? He's intelligent and he's rational but I feel like he's often overcompensating for something with round-about sentences and unnecessarily bombastic vocabulary.

I generally thing Milo has valid things to say, but he does often come off as a twat. My boyfriend won't consider anything coming from Milo because he is associated with Breitbart.

I thought his opening question was good, but his follow up was ineffective.

I'm not sure why he is appealing to our government to do something about corporations not allowing free speech on their privately owned platforms... they don't have to... period. facebook, twitter or any other social media company have 0 responsibility to allow free speech. if you don't like that fact... or if you don't like that they are censoring what you say, then stop using them!

these companies exist to make money like just about any other and if you want to get them to change their ways then the answer is to hit them in their pocketbooks... they can't make money off you if you stop using them. I suspect twitter is very quickly going to be having a "come to jesus" moment real soon with the way their stock keeps plummeting... if some other company doesn't swoop in and buy them for a pitiful sum before changing things themselves.

Not awesome and not at all libertarian to say this:

“Conservative commentators and journalists are being punished, being suspended, having their tweets deleted by Twitter. Facebook is removing criticism of immigration in Europe. Are there any mechanisms the government can use to remind these companies that they have that responsibility, or do we just have to trust that the market is going to punish them if they don’t?”
