I support freedom of expression, even the expression of unpopular ideas. I don’t support exiling people for sharing a thought I dislike.
Starnes embarrassed christians with his lying ways.
What were those shows you were interviewed for?

Fox is a business.
It was a business decision.
Starnes still has his free speech rights.
He does not have the right to Fox’s platform to express whatever he wants.

I first knew about him over a decade ago. He was on FOX complaining about a California middle school social studies textbook teaching all about Islam and nothing about Christianity. He held the book up…it was the exact same textbook my daughter had that year in 7th grade. I looked thru the book…ONE Unit with 3 chapters on Islam…mostly on the empires. FIVE units on various historical times in Christianity with a total of 15 chapters…from Early Christianity…to the takeover of the Roman Empire…to the fall and Catholic Middle Ages…to the Byzantine Empire…to the Rennaissance…to the Reformation. Starnes is nothing but a liar.

And I’m an atheist who thinks that guy is a fool.
Let the guy talk.

He doesn’t have a right to access a private business’ forum.
Well…this is disappointing…
What shows, and what topics did you discuss?
Already covered as deeply as I’m going to.
So why even bring it up?
If you are not going to provide details/links then it really is just you making claims that are impossible to verify.

Patrick:
I didn’t say that.
So guests can be exiled off a radio show?
Sure. Radio stations are free to challenge conventional wisdom or parrot mainstream thought.
So radio shows should exile people off their show if they say demonstrably false and offensive things?
For example, saying Democrats aren’t Christian and instead worship an ancient god named Molech.
Moloch, Molech, or Molek[a] is a name or a term which appears in the Hebrew Bible several times, primarily in the book of Leviticus. The Bible strongly condemns practices which are associated with Moloch, practices which appear to have included child sacrifice.
Traditionally, the name Moloch has been understood as referring to a Canaanite god. However, since 1935, scholars have debated whether or not the term refers to a type of sacrifice on the basis of a similar term, also spelled mlk, which m...

Radio shows are tightly controlled.
You think that guest just spoke extemporaneously, and Starnes had no idea what was going to be said?
Not all media work like CNN, where both anchors and guests work from a prearranged script.
