That is not censorship. They are exercising their right to control the uses to which their property is put, and what their employees do with the time the hospital is paying them for.

“Censorship” is a term that is vastly overused and commonly misused–as now.

Whether or not it’s censorship, the story is familiar. A badly-run government hospital getting mountains of public dollars, yet still crying poverty.

Didn’t we just hear that from King-Drew?
