You're missing the point.
Censorship is censorship. If some company censors Pearl Jam and gets away with it, they, or some other company, is going to be perfectly justified in censoring Limbaugh, or Bush, or Toby Keith, or whatever other spokesperson decides to say something in the air. And then we'll have people bellyaching about how "their" spokespeople are not being heard and that free speech has died. We have a Constitution in this country that guarantees us free public speech. There may be ramifications to what you say, but you are still allowed to say it. If you, or anyone else, wants to strip me or someone else of their rights to speak, then don't whine when someone comes along and strips you of yours.
