Does freedom of speech include embedding and allowing media that lives in our homes 7/24/365 with the ability to lie to influence human thought???

That is the inverse of freedom of speech - a one way street leading to a society controlled by those who control that media. That is where we are RIGHT NOW! The United States of Rupert Murdoch and people of his ilk.

We need laws restricting what we the public are told to the truth - particularly when it comes to something we've been conditioned to watch and listen too from dawn to dusk.
