Supreme Court Takes Up Case on Social Media Regulation in Which Republican States Allege Bias in Social Media Censorship
  • last month
The Supreme Court is hearing a case between Republican states and the Biden administration regarding regulating social media posts. The states argue that White House officials pressured platforms to censor conservative viewpoints. The administration says it did not threaten or coerce platforms and that the platforms often declined government requests. Lower courts sided with the states, but the Supreme Court blocked those rulings while considering the case. The ruling could impact how political leaders engage with platforms on "hot topics" like COVID and elections.
