Who’s in control on social media? Two SCOTUS cases could decide.

from The Week in Philly from KYW Newsradio · host Audacy

The Supreme Court recently heard arguments in a pair of cases about state laws that regulate how social media companies control content on their platforms. The laws were enacted by Republican state governments to prevent conservative voices from being silenced on social media - but do the laws violate the First Amendment by saying private companies can’t choose how to moderate their content? Dr. Michael Moreland, professor at Villanova University's Charles Widger School of Law, explains the arguments the Supreme Court heard in these cases, what a ruling in either direction could mean, and what other questions this case brings up about the power of social media.
