As a member of the Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government, I have had the opportunity to investigate the censorious relationship that developed between federal agencies and certain large social media companies. These companies worked hand-in-hand with federal officials to censor lawful speech on a variety of topics, including COVID-19 and the 2020 election cycle. This is absolutely unacceptable, and I have supported legislation that would prohibit federal officials from engaging in such censorship.
Google ‘punishing Republicans’ who speak out against Big Tech, conservative study claims
Google is “punishing Republicans” who speak out against Big Tech, according to the conservative Media Research Center.
MRC Free Speech America has conducted a series of studies related to Google’s treatment of Republicans ahead of the critical midterm elections. Despite Google’s vehement denials of any wrongdoing, the conservative media watchdog believes Google “does change its algorithm to benefit certain political candidates,” and is focused on the Senate because its “search bias” didn’t carry over to House races where the GOP is already favored.
