A new report detailing how liberal tech giants are censoring conservative speech reveals how the left is on a “jihad against conservative thought.”
Fox News’ Laura Ingraham highlighted the Media Research Center’s “devastating” report during Monday’s “The Ingraham Angle,” highlighting some of the study’s findings.
“Among the findings, claims from former employees that Facebook hides conservative content from the trending section, were backed up by a detailed study,” Ingraham said. “Google, YouTube, and Twitter partner with leftist groups like the Southern Poverty Law Center, that hate conservatives. And check this out. Of the 25 members on the panel that guides Twitter’s policies, 12 are liberals and there is only one conservative. I can’t believe there is one.”
Media Research Center founder and president Brent Bozell joined Ingraham to expound on the report and its implications.
“It’s 50 pages documenting what conservatives have been suggesting has been happening. This is — it sounds hyperbolic, but Laura, this is true,” he said. “This is emerging, the greatest censorship of free speech worldwide in the history of man. Now let me explain this. The left is on a jihad against conservative thought.”
This war, Bozell explained, is “happening in academia, in entertainment, in business, religion, everywhere…Now they’re going to the social media giants. These social media giants have audiences of the billions.”
Bozell noted that different companies use differing tactics to accomplish their leftist goals.
“And what we’ve shown in this massive report is whether it is Facebook, or Twitter, or Google, or YouTube, they are all employing different tactics to go against conservatives,” he said.
