To that end, Zurawik used an appearance Sunday morning on Reliable Sources to call for additional regulations to limit Musk’s power. CNN’s David Zurawik: “Dangerous” with Elon Musk buying Twitter, we have to look to Europe. “You need regulation. You can not let these guys control speech in this country, otherwise we are going to hell. We are there. Trump has opened the gates of hell and now they are chasing us.” pic.twitter.com/QubyKZwVCQ – Julio Rosas (@ Julio_Rosas11) 1 May 2022 “In 1927 we had the law on radio, in 1934 the law on communications. Congress intervened. We made rules. The FCC was not great, but it still regulates the broadcasting industry. You can not use vulgar language, you can not do all these things with speech “, Zurawik began, then suggesting that with billionaires like Mark Zuckerberg and Musk of Facebook / Instagram, all this was likely to fall aside . “We’ve given Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk the equivalent of our airwaves or internet waves, and we’re in big trouble because these guys believe in making money,” he said. “This is dangerous! “We can no longer think in this country!” Zuravik continued. “Seriously! We do not have people in Congress who can make regulations that can make it work. I think we can look at the western countries in Europe trying to limit it. But you need controls on that. You need regulation. “You can not let these guys control speech in this country, otherwise we are going to hell! We are there. Trump has opened the gates of hell and now they are chasing us!” Zurawik was not the only one to suggest that Europe had the right idea when it came to imposing limits on Internet speech. Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton applauded Europeans when they had the opportunity to enforce such regulations just a week earlier. “For too long, technology platforms have fueled misinformation and extremism without any responsibility. The EU is ready to do something about it. “I urge our transatlantic allies to push the Digital Services Act beyond the finish line and strengthen global democracy before it is too late,” Clinton wrote on Twitter, adding: “They did it!” as soon as the measure had succeeded. They did it! https://t.co/Wc4kA9DPsb – Hillary Clinton (@HillaryClinton) April 25, 2022 The Daily Wire is one of America’s fastest growing conservative media companies for breaking news, investigative reporting, sports, podcasts, in-depth analysis, books, and entertainment for a reason: because we believe in what we do.
