Although it is important that we question everything we read, it is just as important that we do not let the government control what we read.
Thanks to unprecedented advances in technology, people are able to access information at rates and levels that would have been unimaginable even a couple decades ago. We can store information that would have taken entire libraries to fill in times past on devices no bigger than our hands today, and transmit it faster than anyone could have dreamed of. This has made it possible for ordinary people to not just find news, but disseminate it as well.
The downside of this is that since everybody can share news, anybody can, leading to misleading and even outright false stories spreading. Even worse, this gives the busybodies in Washington a pretext to exert their control over alternative media.

You people do realize that this site never features anything with the slightest taint of truth don’t you? The act wasn’t passed, in fact the last time anything was done with this it was read twice and referred to the Committee on Foreign Relations on March 16, 2016. That right to free speech comes with a responsibility to be well informed people.

Trenton Michael – what you wrote does not make sense – would you please explain??
We will see if Trump signs this bill
I’m curious, will this make it more difficulty for reporters to protect their sources?
I have a feeling this will make it more difficult for whistleblowers.
Truth and Action might be in trouble. Kind of funny really. It’s business is spewing conservative propaganda, now it’s threatened by a conservative bill that can only be passed by a conservative legislature. Karma?
Is everything Trump and the conservative majority legislature screws up in this country going to be blamed on Obama? Just wondering.
