If you're talking about JPR, free speech was never on the agenda there -- don't kid yourself. They are just as restrictive of speech, if not more so, as DU has ever been - it's simply taken a different form.

Sorry, but we're just going to have to disagree about JPR. I think the place is a cesspool.
