[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Suppose it's found that Ann Seltzer did intentionally present false polling and that she did intend to influence the election...

WHY should she be prosecuted for it?

For the last 4 years plus I have repeatedly heard the right wing right here on DCUM and everywhere else say "So what if there is election disinfo.  So what if there is foreign interference in our elections.  So what if FOX News posts disinfo as "news" and falls back to its attorneys saying "we aren't news, we're entertainment."  People have a right to say whatever they like.  It's protected free speech."

Explain to me why Seltzer's case should be any different?

And if Seltzer needs to be prosecuted why wouldn't we prosecute every other person to published election disinfo with the same fervor?[/quote]

So nobody can explain this?

And are they not thinking about the fact that if they go after Seltzer for releasing a bad poll and the courts go along with it, the Democrats will be able to use that future "US v. Seltzer" as legal precedent for years to come in going after every conservative outlet that puts out misleading info relating to an election?[/quote]
