Even if you don't like Alex Jones, it's bigger than that. It's just censorship of anything that goes against the left.
Has Jones spouted nonsense and untruthful things in his time? yeah, but so have pretty much every media outlet, whether it be mainstream media or alternative media. I mean, look at the channel The Young Turks, what is the difference between what they do and what Jones does apart from being on different ends of the political spectrum? not much, it's basically the same format.
Bad times. I'm sure anybody with an ounce of intelligence can see how bad this is, no matter who you align yourself with. Banning channels like that is putting things on a slippery slope regarding censorship. what next?

If you don't like it start a site like Facebook or YouTube. My gun channels are being kicked off left and right. I don't like it but that's the way it is. I don't visit Facebook any longer and try to limit YouTube use.
I don't agree with what they are doing but like I said it's their site.
