After Aiding Antifa, MSNBC Questions the ‘Pitfalls of Free Speech’
 [NEWSBUSTERS.ORG] Over the course of last week, on NBC and MSNBC, host Chuck Todd gave a leg up to the violent Antifa ...purveyors of mindless lefty revolution... movement by letting them defend their assaults on the police and innocent people not once, but twice. Todd’s interviews showed just how tolerant he was of those who use violence to shut down free speech. And while Todd was absent from MTP Daily on Monday, Katy Tur picked up his torch and proudly pushed back against the First Amendment’s acknowledgment of a person’s right to free speech. "And challenging the First Amendment," Tur declared during the show’s opening tease. "Should holy warrior groups have the right to rally? We'll delve into the power and pitfalls of free speech." When Tur finally got around to targeting free speech rights later in the show, she began by bringing up the controversial rally in Boston, Massachusetts, and counter-protest that dwarfed it. "Over the weekend the debate over free speech raged on," was how she described the events of Saturday, with no mention of the bystanders beaten or the police doused with bottles of urine by Antifa.
