Like I said, the 1A does not create a right to free speech, it protects it, in this case, from the government. There is a right to speak freely (within some constraints) just like there is a right to life, liberty, the pursuit of your goals, and to own property. These are intrinsic and inalienable to human nature and dignity.

Socialist-media may not be breaking any law, but they are breaking their own ostensive terms in a highly skewed and partisan manner, and they are doing so surreptitiously, which indicates that they know this. They may or may not be breaking any laws ( unless public-square doctrine can be said to apply) but they are surely behaving unethically and in a deeply unpleasant, enervating, and insulting manner to those affected, and therefore they can be criticized for their actions.
