EXCLUSIVE: Katherine Maher says the "the number one challenge" in her fight against disinformation is "the First Amendment in the United States," which makes it "a little bit tricky" to censor "bad information" and "the influence peddlers" who spread it.
NPR's censor-in-chief.
@RossofVA@LeadingReport Monarchy? You realize that the previous person was a Romney right? She is related to two former presidential candidates and a current GOP senator? Did you complain about her, too?
Utterly chilling that a Judge fined journalist @CBS_Herridge $800 per day until she reveals the confidential source who told her the FBI was investigating a Chinese scientist working at a U.S. university. MASSIVE violation of the 1st amend. This is one of those moments.
Since this morning, the State of Israel has been at war. Our first objective is to clear out the hostile forces that infiltrated our territory and restore the security and quiet to the communities that have been attacked.
The second objective, at the same time, is to exact an immense price from the enemy, within the Gaza Strip as well. The third objective is to reinforce other fronts so that nobody should mistakenly join this war.
We are at war. In war, one needs to be level-headed. I call on all citizens of Israel to unite in order to achieve our highest goal – victory in the war.
