Censorship Issue?
- Share via
Liberal censorship is alive and well. Recently, while in the B. Dalton bookstore in Orange, I noticed the bestsellers’ section did not include Rush Limbaugh’s “The Way Things Ought To Be.”
I asked the manager where it was and he said as a die-hard liberal he didn’t stock the book. When asked if he believed in censorship, he replied: “Books should be allowed to be printed, just not sold.”
This is a fine philosophy if it was his store, but by refusing to stock the best-selling book of the year, he was denying profits to the company he works for. I wonder if the stockholders of B. Dalton share his open-mindedness.
