they do... Look at what "your view" the anchors do.... They cut ur line fast when u start pouring out hatred
their oga is an apc member, the anchors wouldnt want to be queried for allowing a caller blast his party members. this is what this country has been reduced into, "bigotry"

I never said they shouldn't fight hate speech but NBC has no right to hold radio stations accountable to what their callers choose to say.
I wonder o! Besides their definition of hate speech may be different from that of the government.

That's is not the issue sir. The problem is that is that it is the people in the present government that will define 'hate speech' and who is guilty or not. The motive behind it is the point. Saying that media houses will be paying the cost of voluntary phone calls from viewers who are not even complaining, is one that seems very poor to me in this whole brouhaha. How are you sure the fight against hate speech will not be selective and targeted at the opposition and dissenting voices as that of the fight against corruption?

Hate speech is what it is - hateful, and dangerous and detrimental to peace and national cohesion and harmony.
If you don't have any good or helpful thing to say, keep the fvck quiet. If you are aggrieved about something, take your issue to the appropriate authorities.

i believe the selfish goal behind this policy is to ensure that people dont hear the dirty things this government does which are better expressed by callers on programs aired on radio and tv. imagine these guys saying newspaper headlines mustnt be read more than once? like seriously how is that NBC's business?

Hate speech is terrorism. So said our Ag. President.
I like that categorization.

Firstly, I would rather call your own governor a rapist. The state that produced such a half-baked citizen like yourself most likely has a deviant at the helm of its affairs. Your are a poor representative of your state.

Secondly, what's happening in America is borne from violence, not hate speech per se. White nationalism didn't start yesterday and regardless of that, NeoNazis are still free to express their toxic hatred in words. Why? Freedom of speech, you half-baked muffin. Pick up a book, it wont kill you.

Lastly, what qualifies as hate speech is subjective. If taken to its conclusion, at best it will require judicial interpretation on a case by case basis. As is, anyone who isn't shouting 'Sai Baba' is spouting hate speech.

Btw, don't mention me again, you have mouth odor. If you do, I'll make mention of the mother that birthed you, father that bred you, etc. It wont be nice, trust me

We told them yet they refused to listen. Funny enough they're the one's being tear-gassed.

APC stop witch-hunting opposition if you claim to be practicing democracy. Trump is being criticized daily by CNN and the democrats to an extent that he no longer regard any news that emanates from CNN but he didn't because of that impose fine on them or witchhunt them. Why would Nigeria's case be different. Btw why are they shielding the Arewa youths whose threat is still pending whereas if it was PDP or IPOB that made a slight comment it becomes a hate speech.

Freedom of speech shouldn't trample on other rights. When people insult other people or threaten them, that's not freedom of speech, it is an act of criminality that should be dealt with.

Between freedom of speech and criminal act is a thin line.

And the way you replied me is not hate speech probably because it is favourable to the powers that be. And who are the 'appropriate authorities'? I guess people like our Minister of Information. And how do I communicate it that it will not be termed hateful since anybody who opposes their policy 'hates' them? The same people who will define 'hate speech' for me and tell me who is guilty. Though not supporting hate speeches but these same people came to power via 'hate speeches'. They tried gagging social media, they failed. They fought the judiciary, they failed. Now they are fighting the print and electronic media. They will equally fail.
