The headline:
Mark Steyn Leaves GBNews After Company Demands Contract
Indemnifying Them Against Lawsuits for Wrong Think
and British Regulatory Speech Violations
For years, Mark Steyn has been one of the few fearless voices on the air,
most recently with his own program at GBNews in the Great Britain. And he has been regularly covering taboo
subjects such as adverse reactions to the vaxx, grooming gangs in the UK, and
other topics that evidently have the GBNews producers’ knickers in a twist. Mark’s ratings were consistently at the top of
the time slot, beating out competitors including Piers Morgan. Now where is Mark
Steyn to go?
Sundance has the breaking news:
Mark Steyn, the only man
qualified to replace Rush Limbaugh, has announced his departure from
GBNews after the British media company requested a contract making Steyn legally
accountable for any speech or wrong-think as identified by British regulators
within the Office of Communication (OfComm). {Direct Rumble Link}
Within Britain, all media speech is
monitored by the Office of Communications (OfComm), where official government
censors track commentary according to regulatory and compliance rules
established by the government. Previously, Mark Steyn ran afoul of the OfComm
investigators when he began questioning the efficacy and safety of
the COVID-19 vaccinations. There are two investigations ongoing with
possible fines pending for violating rules on government approved speech.
Into this mix comes the now
capitulating GBNews organization, where Mark Steyn and Neil Oliver have both
pushed the boundaries of acceptable thought. While Mark Steyn was
offline, recovering from two heart attacks, I noticed something was shifting in
the past several weeks at GBNews; from the presentation of Oliver to the way
the content was being shared (no uploads and missing transcripts). It seemed
like something tenuous and opaque was happening in the background. Steyn
confirms.
There a video of Mark confirming all this at the link here.
At SteynOnline here, Mark has some parting shots and touching comments on his departure from GBNews. And this afternoon, he’s back on the radio with James Golden, a/k/a Bo Snerdley in New York. GBNews has capitulated to the dark side.
