Todd Shrum provided me with a lovely example of censorship in an alternative form. He posted this comment from his Facebook page. Social media censorship is something I can discuss as part of my presentation. Intellectual Freedom calls for allowing a person to say what they want, even assemble if they want for anything. The right to express this however does not limit an organization's choice to fire or retain an individual. The University of Utah and thus their hospital receives money from the state. Like policemen, fire men and even public librarians, tax money, the people's money supports University of Utah hospital. How much if any say should the public have?

I like that this issue is very timely and also that it directly relates to my presentation.
