Is Freedom of Speech Under Attack? Yes.
Update: 2025-09-16
Description
WTMJ hosts Steve Scaffidi and Kristin Brey opened the show with a deep dive into political violence, asking how terrorism should be defined and what role social media plays in fueling division. They also explored the impact of phone bans in schools, whether the U.S. could follow Australia’s lead on restricting under-16 social media use, and listener reactions to the issue.
In the second hour, Steve and Kristin examined the limits of free speech after some celebrated Kirk’s death online, raising questions about hate speech, the First Amendment, and accountability. They also spotlighted National Diaper Need Awareness Week with Milwaukee Diaper Mission founder Meagan Johnson, reflected on the legacy of Robert Redford, and closed with listener wishes and stories of small acts of kindness.
