So, Shirley isn't relevant in a thread about journalists in other states specifically copy-catting his work?
Not when they're doing it so poorly they're creating a discussion if the 1A should protect them. That's the main theme of the discussion
The point is that they're not doing work close to what Shirley did (and that wasn't even anything close to sourced, traditional journalism itself)

Naw it's in response to the various "reporting" out of Seattle by people trying to mimic Shirley and go viral like he did.
quote:And though you do agree they are attempting to mimic Shirley, any mention of Shirley is irrelevant in a thread about a state AG's response to people who are attempting to mimic Shirley. Again, we'll agree to disagree.

As a non-Somalian, there is no way I would leave my child with one. Heck, I would just start my own childcare and give my child 55 names.

Isn't it clear they are?

Nobody said "any mention" was irrelevant. Referencing their mimicking and inferior output is directly relevant to the 1A issue, as has been discussed.

Where does the 1st Amendment say poor speech is illegal and not allowed?

quote:You said inserting Shirley into this thread was "irrational" and "wasn't relevant." Now, if you were talking about relevance to some tangent you and others had gone off on, you will have to forgive my misinterpretation because you weren't clear on. It seemed as if you had declared yourself arbiter of what is and isn't relevant in this thread, and Shirley surely is.
Nobody said "any mention" was irrelevant.

And people wonder why the national and state debts are so high Fraud and hidden fraud everywhere.

As a subject, not a reference. That should be clear.

Making Shirley a subject is just this. I was trying to avoid that tangent.

You mentioned it and I responded to your mention. It appears I should not have done so.

No. My use of "poor" referenced their attempt to be "press" or "journalists" that would get 1A protection. It's not a speech issue.

If so, who in your world would is consider a great "press" member or "journalist"? I find it very hard to find one that is honest. Very hard!!

I had no idea that the answer you can not or will not provide is the central discussion of this thread.
