Pelosi says advertisers should force social media companies to stop spreading false information

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., encouraged companies that advertise on social media to use their "tremendous leverage" to push platforms to crack down on disinformation.

"Advertisers are in a position, they have power to discourage platforms from amplifying dangerous and even life-threatening disinformation," she said.

How we take baby steps first. Let’s get the media to ask Pelosi serious questions at her press conferences. Enough soft ball already.

Starting with Pelosi?

speakerpelosi Does that include politicians? Your collective ads spread more lies and misinformation than any other source.

“The” most intelligent statement she has made in like..forever SpeakerPelosi

Nancy uses the neck scarf to hide the bolts.

And who will tell what’s true or false?

LoL she’s one to talk. She’s all about spreading FakeNews

It's not the company, it's the people

Wow that would I hurt all of her democrat friends.

She would be the first to be sanctioned.

Pelosi need to retire

That means that FNN and MSDNC are going off the air!! Ha ha ha.

Queen of lies

Yea.... no. Let people decide for their themselves what is true and false.

What about news companies?

Put the mask on 😷

That would mean she would not have a platform to spread her Bull Shit.

You should stop spreading false news 🤣 FakeNews

She’s spreading false information on tax payer money. Who’s stopping her?

Never c another tweet from her

I agree. Start with her and the DNC

You can start by shutting your pie hole Pelosi!

National Socialism defined

Advertisers? They are the creator of false information, where is the brain?

SpeakerPelosi maybe the politicians should do the same

And she determines the truth?

So more suppression of free speech

If advertisers decide who to censor, then it’ll be biased as hell. Most of the money are in the left-wing companies who got rich by shipping out jobs and expanding in China. They are also heavily influenced by the CCP.

Did Pelosi mean that social media should suppress revealing the truth? I don’t understand!!

How do we force her to quit repeating false narratives? As well as each of her “Establishment” brethren from both “sides” of the Congress? Yes, I know, that is the vast majority of Capital Hill.

Does that mean stop carrying her speeches?

So stop spreading everything she says. Dnc hates free speech.

this old woman talks as if she is drunk .

Oh ok lady

But some advertisers are the worst purveyors of false/dubious information!

Americanism should be respected as on Amendments while drafting laws and policing them is European not American

Ban social media and half our problems go away. 😜 But you'd have to switch from a service economy to a production economy. Then all our problems go away.

SpeakerPelosi loves the idea of a Ministry of Truth. The latest Bill of Rights can be posted each morning at 6AM with emergency revisions as necessary.

iagree

Absolutely. Most of her commentary would be censured for sure then.

Right and nancy will be the arbiter truth

SpeakerPelosi is so hammered she doesn't know what's real anymore.

You are funny.

How would you get your false information out if they did that Nancy? Think!!!!!

Like her Goat Hill Pizza dungeon in San Fran?

I agree they should. But will they?

summons her mob

Oh NOW they care about what social media is censoring/not censoring. My my my...how the tables have turned.

What Business has not been Looted & burned by BLM Protesters?

termlimits

Thanks god everyday for Covid so that mask can conceal the hideous flaps of her neck.

she should try her own medicine.

what about CNN and other media outlets that pump bs to get more eyeballs SpeakerPelosi ?

Yeah, some said Nancy was effective. I'm outraged.

only state approved propaganda is allowed

So now free speech is only okay if your a leftist?

so then they won't advertise with them
