Every citizen has the right to free speech, whether they work for a corporation or not. The argument against this decision is that the Bill of Rights should only apply to people. Corporations are not people. Joe Doe’s comment is ridiculous. Every citizen has the right to free speech, whether they work for a corporation or not.

Another balanced article from the PbPost. Note there is nothing in this post about why it was a good decision. Unfair and unbalanced.
