Free speech? The only free speech you get is being protected from government restrictions on speech (within limits). ABC is not the government.

ABC has the right to do anything they want (well, almost anything) on their site.

Does the OP even know what freedom of speech protection is?

One of those times I agree with you. Cherish it.

ABC can do whatever it wants with its own website/forum.

Weird, the same thing every corporation does. Ever looked at Newegg customer reviews? Ever see one that badmouths Newegg?

People are still fresh off their Digg-pwning high. Having said that, I posted something, mostly because I'm a bandwagon-jumper and I'm bored.

Freedom of Speech only applies to the government stopping you from saying something, and even then it's pretty limited (though still obviously a hell of a lot better than most countries) You people whining about how people are trampling this right might want to at least educate yourself on what exactly you're complaining about. Seems the least you could do.
