Even if you accept ABC's "spin" of the event, you still have a major network providing, in essence, a free block of airtime and refusing to air the opposing viewpoint (contrast this with, for example, the fact that networks used to air the opposition response to major presidential speeches such as the state of the union).


It was a nutty statement. ABC is free to do what it pleases, that wouldn't have happened in Nazi Germany.


Fair play!
