In my original post I clearly stated this, so I'm not sure why you're confused.
They can simply not partner with them and they will retain their existing access to the service. Partnering is an endorsement and adjacent to moderation.
Worth pointing out that there are other conservative outlets on their list, ones with a good reputation (at least compared to Breitbart).
- plurple 7y agoI’m not confused at all. They partnered with hundreds of sites, and excluded Breitbart from getting paid. Some partnership.
