This argument has become so tiresome.
Speech laws become very blurry when it comes to corporations. I'd get in trouble with regulators if I went around saying the herbal supplements I sell cures cancer. Government forces companies to published compelled speech when it comes to food labeling or alcohol/cigarette warnings.
Where does the line exist? I don't know and I'd love to see a court rule on this.

This, and the current debate generally, is about trying to have the government intervene online when people say legal things someone doesn't like, or don't want to host things they don't like.
