Social media is valuable because of the human connections it enables. Yet Musk has put hate and division over love and connection. As of today @freepress (and I) will stop engaging here. We invite you to join us and find us on different platforms. #eXit https://t.co/UVsmYDs2Xa

Trump has cascaded back into power on a wave of lies, racism, hate and other authoritarian tactics, egged on by a media system that puts profit over everything else. Here’s what @freepress will do to fight back: https://t.co/FQ4uf2Gxgr

Shout out to the poll workers, "the heroes in the fight against Musk's lies," writes my @freepress colleague @TimKarr (an analysis of the money driving disinformation and more) . https://t.co/9dyVhofybS

.@freepressaction statement on why Commissioner Carr 's claim is wrong, and Harris' appearance on SNL does not constitute a violation of the FCC's equal time rule: https://t.co/lfBeDDtDN9

[Jessica González - @JGo4Justice.bsky.social @JGo4Justice]

This isn't how it works.

The FCC's own website states, in bold, that "the station is not required to seek out opposing legally qualified candidates and offer them Equal Opportunities."

Of course Trump may seek time.

This is a trumped up gotcha.

[Brendan Carr @BrendanCarrFCC]

This is a clear and blatant effort to evade the FCC's Equal Time rule.

The purpose of the rule is to avoid exactly this type of biased and partisan conduct - a licensed broadcaster using the public airwaves to exert its influence for one candidate on the eve of an election.

Unless the broadcaster offered Equal Time to other qualifying campaigns.

Our nation has yet to reckon with the deadly role our media system has played in the creation and distribution of narratives that have harmed countless people, including Ohio’s Haitian community, write @JGo4Justice and @JosephATorres. https://t.co/cWrsVqKwM4

Newly released polling data from @freepress finds that the vast majority of Californians want less hate and misinformation, and more civic news and information, this election cycle. https://t.co/X4BieAysAb

Anti-immigrant lies make our communities less safe and undermine democracy. Stop the hate, @elonmusk. #StopToxicTwitter

It's so predictable and unacceptable that racist and xenophobic lies accelerate during election cycles. Here's my take on why that happens, and how this year looks different than others from a recent interview with @accuracy. #Election2024 https://t.co/x8DmFGMp8k
