First: Social media platforms such as Instagram, Facebook and Twitter among many others aren't covered by the 1st amendment as they are private companies. Thus they set the terms of use not the U.S. government. So, with James Woods being suspended by Twitter for violations of its terms is not an infringement on his rights to free speech.
As noted earlier KUOW the NPR station decided to stop airing the coronavirus briefings because of misinformation and false hoods. This does not mean that the briefings have been blacklisted a term from the Red Scare era of Sen. Joseph McCarthy. The station clearly stated that they would report on relevant facts disseminated from the briefings. American broadcasters have no obligation to air live briefings by the president or anyone else.
