...Autism, for example, should be distinguished from disorders that are currently screened, such as Down syndrome and Huntington’s diseases. It is not a disease, but a spectrum condition that does not necessarily entail suffering. Indeed, autism is often related to remarkable talents—it is believed that both Newton and Einstein were autistic—and selection against the condition can be viewed as a sinister form of eugenics that discriminates against those who are not typical...

Press correctly points out that the doctrine does not entail censorship, but government meddling in broadcasting content for reasons other than slander or obscenity is still unconstitutional. Press’s premise, moreover, is farcical: Talk radio operates under the rules of the free market system. There is no structural advantage for conservatives; they just happen to flourish in this realm. Nothing is hindering liberals from talk radio success other than their lack of appeal to talk-radio’s conservative-leaning audience, just as conservatives struggle to prosper in the liberal dominions of print media, the Internet...
