What do you mean, did the Biden admin target any particular shows or networks? Are you also aware the current admin is holding off Paramount's merger to exert influence over their programming? IDK how free that feels. May not be directly breaking laws, but it's absolutely a subversion of free speech.

No, it's not. Free speech protects what you say from the government, not your employer. Your employer ALSO has free speech, meaning they can decide what can and can't be said on their property.

This is like saying Sesame Street doesn't show hardcore porn and that's a violation of free speech.
