fox news, cnn both big corporations that knowingly try and DO influence elections

do you think the govt should regulate Fox and say they need to allow more liberal voices on to make it fair?

do you think the govt should regulate CNN and say they need to allow more conservative voices to make it fair?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78957039



Interestingly enough, a few decades ago there were legal requirements in FCC laws that stated the media using public airwaves had to present both sides of the political spectrum. That was eliminated in an era of so-called deregulation, which has been a convenient foil for a lot of Limousine Liberalism in today's America.

HEY CONSERVATIVES

you realize how anti-conservative it is to ask the govt to interfere in private busines right??

you realize asking the govt to regulate private business is socialism right?

it is beyond ant-conservative for conservatives to demand govt regulation of private business
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78957039


Uh, how come that same government has been an extra legal layer of protection to various social-media companies. Forget the idea of a level playing field. How come the field has been tilted in Twitter's, Facebook's, Youtube's, etc, favor?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78283089


if you don't like it, go start a competing platform

that is called capitalism

don' t like how Store A operates or makes widgets, go start competing Store B

that is american capitalism

asking for the govt to regulate a business whose politics you disagree with IS SOCIALISM
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78957039



Stop saying this.Pay attention. When you as a large corporation are knowingly trying to influence an election your argument falls apart.

Trump is promoting a free and open platform. You want censorship like in China??????????
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77838918


Having the govt control private business is what China does

dumb fuck

if trump wants a free and open platform then he needs to build a true public square that no one owns and no one proftis off of

he cannot force private businesses to do what he wants, that is what fascist dictators in places like CHina do

Since FCC rules years ago did demand fairness-in-reporting for media companies - the ones that admittedly used the public airwaves - and the unethical left wasn't in hog heaven at the time, I'd say pushback from the political right is fair play and long overdue.

(December 21, 2019) Facebook says it removed fake accounts linked to a pro-Trump media outlet known to push conspiracy theories
Facebook is said to have removed more than 600 fake accounts
linked to a website known to have pushed conspiracy theories in support of President Donald Trump.
NBC News reported Friday that The Epoch Times spent millions of dollars to run ads through the network of fake accounts,
which apparently were created using artificial intelligence and were run by Vietnamese users pretending to be Americans.

(December 23, 2019) Pro-Trump news outlet used AI to create fake Facebook accounts pushing far-right stories, officials say (Epoch Times)
Facebook has removed hundreds of fake accounts created with artificial intelligence by a right-wing media company meant to promote its own content supportive of Donald Trump
and critical of the Chinese government, the company said. The campaign used artificially generated profile images and employed more than 600 Facebook accounts,
89 pages, 156 groups and 72 Instagram profiles, according to NBC News, all of which had been removed from the company’s social media platforms by Monday.

(April 29, 2020) Some Canadians who received unsolicited copy of Epoch Times upset by claim that China was behind virus
People in Oakville, Etobicoke, Markham, and Toronto, Ont. all reported getting copies of a special edition of the Epoch Times,
as did residents in Vancouver, Kelowna, B.C., and Winnipeg. Some of them expressed concerns to CBC News over the content.
Complaints have also surfaced on social media. It's not clear whether or not all the special edition copies were delivered
by Canada Post. Lisa Armstrong in Kelowna found a copy in her rural mailbox. "That's when I got annoyed or suspicious.
It's like, why is this in my mailbox? You expect to see those kind of things online on social media," she said.
Cindy Gu, the publisher of the Epoch Times, declined to say how many copies of that issue were distributed.
In an email to CBC News, Gu said the publication had been delivering copies to "specific neighbourhoods."

(April 30, 2020) Anger after Edinburgh residents receive 'dangerous' right-wing coronavirus fake news magazine
A bizarre right wing conspiracy magazine printed in the US and branded "dangerous propaganda" has been delivered to some Edinburgh residents,
and accuses the Chinese Communist Party of orchestrating a huge cover up. The Daily Record reports that people across the city received the glossy magazine
on Tuesday morning (29 April). In its issue dedicated to coronavirus, it claims the pandemic should be re-branded the “CCP virus” after the ruling Chinese Communist Party.
There is no explanation why the magazine was delivered to Edinburgh, but people in Oakville, Etobicoke, Markham, and Toronto in Canada also received a copy.

(May 6, 2020) Epoch Times conspiracy 'news' sent to Oxfordshire councillors
SOUTH Oxfordshire councillors have raised the alarm after they were apparently targeted by a Trump-backing,
Chinese conspiracy theory-peddling website spreading misinformation about the coronavirus.
The email, sent to members of South Oxfordshire District Council, is from what appears to be a personal Gmail account
belonging to someone called Nathan Song, but includes links to the website of the Epoch Times,
a news organisation run by dissidents from China, who in recent years have backed Donald Trump’s presidency
and promoted several prominent conspiracy theories. In the email, titled ‘Please support our review of China policy’,
councillors are invited to watch an hour-long documentary and read a digital version of Epoch Times' 60-page March/April edition.

(May 13, 2020) Sheffield councillors targeted with coronavirus conspiracy theory and false information
Councillors in Sheffield raised the alarm after they were targeted by a Trump-supporting publication spreading misinformation about the coronavirus.
The Epoch Times is a New York-based newspaper which has reportedly given extensive funding and support to US President Donald Trump
and promoted conspiracy theories including Spygate and QAnon. So it came as a shock to elected members of Sheffield Council when it sent unsolicited emails
urging them to watch an hour-long film which puts blame on the Chinese Communist Party for the pandemic and calls it the ‘Wuhan virus’ and ‘CCP virus’.

The order explicitly calls out Big Tech companies for openly working with the Chinese Communist Party and its military.

The order pursues the long-addressed “Section 230” argument protecting Big Tech firms.

The order also calls large social media platforms “the functional equivalent of a traditional public forum” and states these firms “should not infringe on protected speech”.
