That's what she is doing here. So we have to hold tight to our values by banning people. That sounds good. Hold tight to our values by banning people. It's not just Michelle Obama, of course. Oliver Darsey over at CNN. He he put out a social he puts out a social media newsletter and he had these paragraphs. He says, We regularly discuss what big tech companies have done to poison the public conversation by providing large platforms to bad faith actors who lie, mislead and promote conspiracy theories.

[00:51:45]
What about TV companies that provide platforms to networks like Newsmax, one Americanus and yes, Fox News? So now Oliver is calling for TV companies to ban the distribution of Fox News on the basis of this, he said Sean Hannity, Tucker Carlson, Mark Levin and others are responsible for the lies they peddle to their audiences. But the TV companies that beam them into millions of homes around the country also bear some responsibility. And yet we rarely, if ever, talk about them in his time TV carrier's face questions for lending their platforms to dishonest companies that profit off of disinformation and conspiracy theories.
And when the Confederates saw Jackson standing fearless like a stonewall, the army of Northern Virginia took courage and drove the federal army off their land.

So, you lied. You didn't quote anything she actually said. The first paragraph addresses her comments about Trump being banned from Twitter, not Fox News being canceled. The second paragraph talks about someone not named Michelle Obama calling for companies to ban distribution of Fox News.

Here is what Obama said, as referenced in the first paragraph:
Now is the time for Silicon Valley companies to stop enabling this monstrous behavior-and go even further than they have by permanently banning this man from their platforms and putting in place policies to prevent their technology from being used by the nation’s leaders to fuel insurrection,” Obama said in a note posted to Twitter on Thursday.
Here is the "Oliver" that the second paragraph refers to. https://www.cnn.com/2021/01/08/media/tv ... index.html

What you posted was a flat-out lie.

Yeah it's Oliver Darsey at CNN according to the transcript that wants Fox and other conservative media outlets banned.

I hope we are banned. We need our own platform. In any case the first amendment is dead for anyone right of center.

Banning a media outlet is going too far. What should happen is, if you want to call yourself a media company, you agree to pay huge fines for promoting pure BS.

If you want to make fantasy videos, you don't get to be called "the media" or "the news."

Only you could say this after watching the biggest whiner in American history use his privilege and podium to repeat baseless crap in a nationally-broadcast speech, in order to rile up a crowd of thousands into marching on the Capitol and busting down the doors.

The Right is soooo aggrieved about their lack of freedom, I’m sure.

How can you enjoy always being a part of this victim culture ..?

Can you imagine if Trumpistan actually did secede? Who the hell would take care of all these babies? The place would be packed with incompetent, irresponsible children in adult bodies.

Yeah, well Darsey's wrong. Maybe an idiot. First I've ever heard of him. But he's not Michelle Obama, right?

Who is the "we" that you hope will get banned? You don't have to get banned to have your own platform. Right now, just wander on over to Gab. Lots of your friends are there. But if you want a platform where people plot to overthrow the U.S. Government, don't expect anyone to want to do business with it. Because the vast majority of Americans don't feel very kindly toward Treason Weasels.

And even you don't actually believe that the first amendment is dead for right of center. That's two lies in this thread.

And if no-one had questioned you, you’d be repeating the same incorrect statement over and over, for a decade. Sort of like that whole ‘Obama apology tour’ thing.

Of course, odds are still really good that you’ll make this same claim again within the year.
