I noticed that RyPN made mention that it's an [IRS] 501(c)(3) corporation. If it ran a forum in which political views were being expressed, it ran the risk of losing that status. Doesn't take any lawyer at all, just a complaint to the IRS. Consider this while remembering the current Presidential administration that's in place.
That is incorrect. 501c3's are prohibited from direct intervention in political campaigns or "more than insubstantial" lobbying.
Allowing independent individuals to comment on current affairs violates neither item.
