CNN's Jake Tapper criticized Vice President JD Vance for his recent comments on free speech at the Munich Security Conference. While Vance has positioned himself as a proponent of free expression, Tapper pointed to the recent indefinite banning of Associated Press journalists from White House events for not adhering to new naming conventions as a counterpoint to Vance's assertions. Tapper warned that Vance's remarks could lead to dangerous implications for free speech, underscoring the tension between government policies and media freedom in the current administration.
Vice President J.D. Vance sounded quite like a free speech advocate in Munich today, especially with this comment. Free speech, I fear, is in retreat.
The current administration is waging a battle against free speech. The move to bar the AP reporters is questionable legally and contrary to freedom of speech.
