Continuing his anti-media tour (on the media), Newt Gingrich claims when people can’t applaud at a debate, their free speech is being compromised.

Mr. Gingrich clearly noticed something was off, too. “We’re going to serve notice on future debates,” he told Fox. “We’re just not going to allow that to happen. That’s wrong. The media doesn’t control free speech. People ought to be allowed to applaud if they want to.”
