Your argument is flawed if you truly believe in the freedom of speech.
While I disagree strongly with Fox's delineation of "dissent vs. dishonour" it does not represent a threat to free speech unless Fox has the power to enforce her notions.
If she can, it is censorship, if she can't it's merely censure.
Seeing as her position is getting censure here (justified in my opinion) the reactions to her position represent as much an affront to "free speech" as her position does.
Simply put, if she wants to call it dishonour then that's merely her censure, and it can be met with censure, ignored or whatnot.
If she called it, say, treason, that would be a horse of a different colour as treason is punishable by law.
