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.

BS
I couldn’t actually read the entire article due to ads but I tend to block sources I’m not familiar with or sources that I believe propagate f**e news- like Breitbart and RawStory.
Really… Truth and Action, a known f**e news outlet, is upset because f**e news is about to be illegal… Imagine that. Liars being held accountable… This has nothing to do with freedom of speech, because the First Amendment does not Grant the right to lie about things to get your way. Legal precedent for that is slander and libel.
Actually I like Raw Story. They compile the news that’s already been published by the original sources. There were a few that I have,already blocked like Addictive Information and a couple of others that really did have f**e news or sensational headlines and nothing in the article to back up the headlines that were meant to hook you. I don’t read Breitbart because I don’t believe the alt-right perspective on anything.
Sorry they will keep all the ones in that they want to keep using to push their agenda. it’s not about truth and fact it’s about what they want you to believe. The direction they want you to go. They know the media controls the people. Or at least it’s a very big influence
thanks liberal scum.
Any bill that “gives the government the authority to ‘challenge’ information and media coverage that it labels threatening to the world’s ‘security and stability’ in fact encourages propaganda, and in fact violates our right to a free press…
What’s good for the goose is good for the gander. Generally speaking, an Act is just that. An act of doing something. Acts do not carry the force of Law. The Laws are your rights protected and reserved by the Constitution which was perfect in all ways. To the judges it’s a way of discharging debt is all.
Obama removed the BAN ON THE USE OF PROPAGANDA AGAINST THE CITIZENS OF AMERICA
There seems to be things happening in the world aligning Communist.
-California today- opening Communist party (in news). Also talking succession from the United States since Trump won (Eric holder &Obama moved there)
-Pope, Communist from Argentina , rejected by Jesuits for his beliefs ends up leading Catholic Church and is hated for his communist beliefs(unless you are a socialist/communist or another religion)
– Communist-Socialist China wants church bc of Communist Pope
– Obama and Communist Cuba new ties even though slums/horror from communism
-Venezuela rioting over socialism/Communism forced on them
-Paris Climate Agreement all communist – means of controlling production (Germany controls) not sure about refugees but may. E work force for German manufacturers. France screwed, refugee hopeful workers for manufacturing?
So there’s more but this stuff is in the news. It’s obvious we need this Act!
