Jon Gaunt and Freedom of Speech

Meanwhile, the Guardian’s Mark Lawson sticks up for freedom of speech–even shock jock Jon Gaunt’s–after Mr. Gaunt is fired from TalkSport over his remarks about “health Nazis.” He compares the reaction to Mr. Gaunt’s remarks, and his firing, with what he refers to as “Granddaughtergate” (the Brand/Ross flap), and suggests that had that not occurred, Mr. Gaunt might still be employed.
