Friend — Free Press Action is working to fight online disinformation — and we have a crucial opportunity right now. Can you raise your voice to demand Congress act on deadly disinformation ? Friend — Fed up.
That’s how I’d describe the sentiment of all of us at Free Press Action who have been fighting for years to stop online disinformation and the Big Tech companies that allow lies to flourish on their platforms.
We know that in the age of COVID-19, disinformation doesn’t just divide us — it can have real life-and-death consequences. That’s why Free Press Action is demanding that Congress act now to stop companies like Facebook from profiting off of lies. Free Press Action has been leading the charge against disinformation online and off from before the Trump era to today. And we know disinformation is not just about the blatant lies you see on Facebook or YouTube.
It’s far more serious : Disinformation disrupts our democratic process. It disenfranchises voters, makes it harder to achieve progress against the pandemic, enshrines racist inequities in our society, and deeply divides our communities. Disinformation is a threat to our basic rights, our health, and our lives. Thanks !
