FedSoc Events02/03/22 • 71 min
The 2022 Missouri Chapters Conference took place on January 24, 2022, at the Missouri State Capitol in Jefferson City, MO. The topic of the conference was "Freedom of Thought".
Some social media companies are inviting the government to impose new content moderation and censorship requirements. Others say that in a free market system, consumers should be able to choose social media networks based on those networks’ content moderation policies. Still others suggest that Big Tech could be regulated as a common carrier, barring large platforms from discriminating against messages based on their content. Which is the best approach?
Featuring:
Josh Divine, Chief Counsel to Senator Josh Hawley, United States Senate
Lyrissa Lidsky, Dean and Judge C.A. Leedy Professor of Law, University of Missouri
Amy Peikoff, Chief Policy Officer, Parler
Moderator: Edward Greim, Partner, Graves Garrett LLC and President, Kansas City Lawyers Chapter
