Exposing Media Lies: How NPR and Others Mislead on Supreme Court Censorship Ruling

In this compelling commentary, Robert Ian of conquerchange.com dives into the issue of media gaslighting and the distortion of facts surrounding free speech and censorship. He highlights constitutional law scholar Jonathan Turley’s recent blog post addressing a false claim repeated by NPR and others: that the Supreme Court rejected allegations of government coordination with social media companies to censor content. Ian clarifies that the Supreme Court’s 6-3 ruling in Murthy v. Missouri was solely about the lack of standing for Missouri and Louisiana, not a judgment on the merits of the censorship claims. Ian emphasizes Turley’s point that no Supreme Court decision was made regarding whether government pressure on social media platforms violated the First Amendment. He critiques the mainstream media and figures like law professor Mary Anne Franks for perpetuating this falsehood, labeling it a deliberate misrepresentation. Ian underscores Turley’s long-standing defense of the Constitution and free speech, noting the growing scarcity of credible voices like his in today’s media landscape.  The commentary also connects this issue to broader concerns, such as the weaponization of free speech against ordinary citizens and the dismissal of evidence like the Twitter and Facebook Files as “conspiracy theories.” Ian warns that censorship is a direct threat to freedom and calls for vigilance against these troubling trends.  Find Robert here: https://ConquerChange.com Find Kerry here: http://financialsurvivalnetwork.com/ and here https://inflationcafe.com
