Don't Be Fooled by Mark Zuckerberg's Letter

This week, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg sent a letter to House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan admitting to censoring information on his social media platforms after heavy pressure from the Biden-Harris administration. Many are celebrating the news, calling it a major victory for free speech. However, all we see is too little, too late.

For years, Townhall has been sounding the alarm about social media censorship, influenced by woke advertisers, powerful political players, and, yes, the government itself. 

Facebook has fact-checked us into oblivion with so-called “independent fact-checkers,” hid our content from the public, and stripped away our ability to monetize. We watched a once thriving online community looking to stay informed and debate ideas slowly disappear. Facebook was determined to wipe “political” content from the platform — and despite our best efforts to stop them, it succeeded. 

Then in 2023 came the Twitter and Facebook files, where the censorship and election interference were exposed, receipts and all. The files received national attention for weeks. But still, what was done? 

Fast-forward to now, and Zuckerberg has finally decided to apologize for doing the Biden-Harris administration's bidding and removing or suppressing content detailing the truth about COVID-19 and the Hunter Biden laptop — stories that we covered truthfully but were accused of spreading “conspiracy theories” or “Russian disinformation.”

“Oops, our bad! We won’t do it anymore. We promise,” the Meta CEO essentially wrote in his letter to Chairman Jordan. 

But the damage has already been done — or so it would have been if it wasn’t for our VIP members. 

When Meta and other Big Tech companies began censoring our content, our VIP members and their direct financial support allowed our writers to keep telling the truth the Biden-Harris regime didn’t want you to see.

While Zuckerberg has "apologized" and vowed to push back against Big Government attempting to violate the First Amendment rights of Americans going forward, he and other Big Tech companies have proven they cannot be trusted. That's why, now more than ever, we need VIP members' support.

This can, and will, happen again. It's only a matter of time.

During this pivotal election year when our great nation risks falling into full-blown communism, getting the truth and exposing the radical left's plans to destroy our way of life is more important than ever.

America's future and prosperity depend on a free press that is willing to hold those in power, the same people who claim to want to “save democracy," accountable for their blatantly unconstitutional actions.

Become a Townhall VIP member today and join us in our fight for free speech and to report the truth that threatens the power-hungry, authoritarian left.

Don’t let Big Tech and Big Government destroy us.
