  1. Why should news outlets be compensated for being on social media and how would that be justified under current law? And let’s be honest, news outlets aren’t the primary content creators attracting people to social media so I don’t understand what leverage they have. I also think a lot of people don’t know or understand that algorithms serve you want you interact with. Are the algorithms alive and evil or are humans just fascinated by chaos and violence?

  2. We are so far behind Europe in this it’s pathetic.

  3. MAGA SHOULD BE ARBITERS OF "DISINFORMATSIA" AND LOCK UP KLOBUCHAR FOR THOSE CRIMES AGAINST THE STATE.

  4. Klobuchar is right her lies and Hitlerian "1984" Fascism of HER disinformation needs her to be sent to re-education camp.

  5. Klobuchar appears brain damaged to my untrained eye.

  6. The presenter could have explained this better… you mean journalist organisations would be paid "fairly" for appearing on Facebook, and other social media sites?

  7. Mastodon has no ads..

  8. Does Amy know when the internet began? She probably thinks it started in 90s.

  9. Her position on this matter surely makes a great deal more sense than eating a salad with a comb. FYI, media companies allowing their employees to claim that Whites actually benefit from White Privilege are promoting misinformation, the vilification of identifiable Indigenous Peoples of Eurasia, not an actual established fact. White Privilege is a racist theory, not an actual established fact. No theory becomes a fact.

  10. THE ANTICHRIST IS IN CHARGE OF ALL THIS MESS.
    APOCALYPSE CHAPTER 6🏹🇵🇰🏹
    DANIEL CHAPTER 11 VERSE 37🏳️‍🌈✍️
    DEMOCRATS WORK FOR ISIS 🇵🇰✍️

  11. does anyone watch free tv anymore?

  12. inposter look at her shirt red

  13. Amy Klobuchar you and all of the Corrupt/Communist Dems Got Caught colluding with BIG TECH

  14. she’s a clown. ridiculous

  15. If a platform is considered a publisher then a platform can be sued or/and permanently shut down for violating a law, thus reducing laws to weapons. The law should be a shield for all, not a weapon for a select group! This is sick, what she wants is to destroy the internet so you're reduced to watching CNN or some other government approved voice. The irony that she speaks as if she's the voice of the people while petitioning to silence the people😂 this is when you know everything that comes out of her mouth is a lie!!

  16. Day 66: Elon turned Twitter into an overdue rent Hate Central. Elon's Twitter poll told Elon to step down as CEO.

    US Lawmakers introduced a Bill to Ban Tik Tok while Twitter and Facebook are the biggest drivers of hate speech.

  17. Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

  18. This needs to be shared, this ladies excellent

  19. Another feminist man hater.

  20. She really tells it like it isn't.

  21. Just had a look into this. The lashbsck from social media users was so abrupt and intense the Australian Government did not legislate this crap at all.
    An agreement had to be made between Facebook and media companies.
    Now we don't elven see their posts on our timeline anymore. Good riddance.
    Less brainwashing from Rupert Murdock and friends

  22. Amy, could this legislation cause a 1984 in our social media communication to be decreed?

  23. Media like TikTok and Twitter are faceless nameless cesspools.

  24. The point is obvious. All our laws assume a very different paradigm. If everyone has a printing press and a hyper distribution process, what is slander and what is libel. What are facts to a culture that has decided to pick its own.?

  25. I have a blog post that I grew over a couple of years with seo blogs and it had a patio gardening store. I finally grew steadily to 100 views per day and Google said great, you can now have our ads. But after that, my views did not increase, it's like Google shut off the traffic (views)… so they got ad space but they didn't have to pay me for ads because I didn't have enough traffic. I was still adding seo content and even put a calendar for local garden events across the country. I have never made 1cent but Google got free ads and still does.

  26. You go Amy! Amy 2024!

  27. Lames. Silence everyone so you can spam more lies. Typical Nazis.

  28. Oh now their publishers since u don’t have control of Twitter

  29. Laws need to keep up with technology.

  30. Yup. Now in Australia media companies are shadow bsnned

  31. BS. Media should be banned from publishing on social media platforms. Its a place for ppl to be social.

  32. Funny how democrats changed their tune on section 230 after Musk bought Twitter

  33. Take the Dark money out of politicians hands. Start listening to the citizens, not the corporations!!!!!

  34. Social media companies should stop sharing misinformation to begin with.

  35. We suddenly care about social media because Elon is exposing the hypocrisy.

  36. We need legislation to curtail the misinformation spewed from main stream media like NBC, ABC, CBS, MSNBC, CNN, Reuters, AP, NYT, and WaPo.

  37. Most dangerous issue on social media is groomers preying on kids to indoctrinate them into their sick ideology. Thankfully Elon Musk is cracking down on this.

  38. Mainstream media are corrupt left publishers and liars

  39. Fake news selling propaganda for democrats everyone in in knows this
