Why You Should Support Free Speech, Especially For People You Disagree With (Ep. 146)

Congress, censorship, and LinkedIn...oh my!

Oh yeah, and my touristy trip to Vegas, but you’ll need to tune in to hear my BroBasket inspired story (see the picture in this episode’s show notes).

This probably isn’t news to most of you, but after Mark Zuckerberg testified in front of congress last week, we all found out how out of touch members of congress are with the internet and social media. We even have a sound bite compilation to share on this episode that’s both sad and entertaining, but mostly enlightening.

The internet is a great place to express your opinion, or is it? Reddit recently made the news due to its CEO’s views on censorship. I’ve never been shy about my opinion on the matter, but after expressing my opinion on my breaking news site, the backlash was intense.

In this episode, we’ll talk about why free speech is so important and why all speech is valuable. Yep, you heard that right.

And finally, we’ve got new developments to talk about with LinkedIn video ads. You don’t want to miss this episode of Video Marketing Mastery.
