Freedom of Speech

Other Risks to Free Speech

  • Using Federal Trade Commission investigations to get back at media outlets sharing anti-administration stories.
  • Using the power of regulation to control legacy media
  • Investigating non-profits for "corruption" such as Catholic Chartieis USA and Council on American-Islamic Relations
  • Banning outlets from public press briefings

The White House’s real aim is self-censorship by everyone else. Everyone in the United States and around the world — in the media and online — who is watching these censorship attempts. The goal is to get us all to temper our speech in response.

Effects of Censorship

Autocrats do not outright ban speech - rather they use the government to punish contrarian speech. Those who follow their preferred messaging are praised and become a “defacto state media”

Fighting Censorship

  • Fight back with every attempt at censoring.
  • Collectively work together with other groups to show unity.
  • Hold up those who fight censorhip and hold accountable people who fold to the censor's power.
  • Spread and support press that cover honest and risky stories.
