Conservatives must change their minds when it comes to regulating private media such as Facebook, Google, and twitter. We either control them, or they control all of the public national debate. Those are our only choices.

Senator-Elect Josh Hawley Questions Whether Social Media Platforms Deserve Their 'Special Immunity'

Media | Mike Brest

'They appear to be using their power to shut down political viewpoints that they don't agree with, usually conservative'

 There are changes in the NAFTA agreement to what is called section 230 of the communication decency act. What that is, Tucker, it’s actually deal that the tech companies get from the government that says that they can’t be sued like any other publisher. They can’t be sued like a newspaper, they can’t be sued like a TV station. Supposedly what they’re supposed to do in return for that immunity, is they’re not supposed to exercise editorial content, editorial control,” Hawley began.He continued, “My worry is these companies are increasingly censoring. I mean they’re censoring conservatives, they are censoring based on political viewpoint. My question is, should they really be getting this special immunity from the government if they’re also going to act like censors? I think we need to take a hard look at that.”
