President Trump is expected to order a review of a law that has long protected Twitter, Facebook and Google from being liable for user posts - an attempt to intervene in the media that experts say is unlikely to survive legal scrutiny 1/3
News of the proposed executive order came after Trump attacked Twitter for tagging the President’s tweets about unsubstantiated claims of fraud in mail-in voting with a warning prompting readers to fact-check the posts.
The draft order, as written, attempts to circumvent Congress and the courts in directing changes to long-established interpretations of Section 230. It represents the latest attempt by Trump to use the tools of the Presidency to force private companies to change policies that he believes are not favorable to him.
Social media companies have been under pressure from many quarters, both in the United States and other countries, to better control misinformation and harmful content on their services. The executive order would call for the Federal Communications Commission to propose regulations for Section 230, part of a 1996 law called the Communications Decency Act.
The draft order also states that the White House Office of Digital Strategy will re-establish a tool to help citizens report cases of online censorship. The tool will collect complaints of online censorship and submit them to the Department of Justice and the Federal Trade Commission . The FCC and the FTC did not immediately respond to a request for comment. In an interview with Fox News Channel on Wednesday, FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr said Twitter has decided “to engage the president of the United States with its own partisan, political viewpoint.”
