Do you think there is a differance between free speech and propaganda?

Why do people like limbaugh get payed good money and recieve good health care for so called FREE SPEECH???.You would have to be in alot of pain to recieve prescriptions of synthetic heroin from a legitamate doctor.Not that i listen to their poison,i just cant see how people like them get payed for their opinion.He must think everything bush does is perfect in his junkie perspective.

Yes I realize that freedom of speech is just that freedom of speech-





Propaganda- is just information spread to support some cause





There is a differance in the terms. As for Rush- that is what he is paid for as are many other political commentators...they have the freedom to do this and I'm glad. I would hate to think that we would limit someone else's thinking just because we don't agree with it. Even more...I have changed my mind before...who knows who may influence you. I want to hear it from all sides, and up and down when deciding on issues and I'm glad I have all these choices to listen too.





However I can't say I listen to Rush a lot.
Reply:Nope. Free speech means say anything you want...period
Reply:Limbaugh gets paid because people listen to him, and that brings in advertising dollars to the radio network he's one.





You could just as easily point that finger at Al Franken... oh, wait, Air America is bust.. is he working for free? Doubtful...
Reply:MY opinion to your question is , no! Free speech is provided by the speaker, determining if it is propaganda is solely up to the listener. You have made you opinion regarding this situation, in your sub-text statement. That is YOUR FREE SPEECH! GOOD LUCK!
