Podcasts about media regulation

What does it mean for democracy when a president owns a social platform, and is supported by others with major platforms of their own? Philip Napoli directs the DeWitt Wallace Center for Media and Democracy at Duke University and he joins Manoj Mohanan, interim public policy dean at Duke to discuss historical parallels to the connection between policy and media ownership, and regulation options. His book is called “Social Media and the Public Interest, Media Regulation in the Disinformation Age."  Read show notes/transcript.

Will the role of TikTok in the Romanian presidential elections prove a test for Brussels' enforcement of social media? The video playing app played a significant role in the rise of Calin Georgescu, a previously little-known candidate who won the first round of Romania's national elections.However, TikTok refutes its impact on the poll, citing its strict guidelines banning political ads and combating covert influence operations.The platform is also bound to follow transparency rules under the Digital Services Act (DSA), which entered into force in 2023.Today Radio Schuman dives into the topic with Richard Woods, International Policy Director at the Global Disinformation Index.On the second segment of the podcast, we take a look at significant parliamentary committee meetings and recommendations by EU health ministers.In the last part of the show, Radio Schuman looks at the 2024 Oxford Word of the year - spoiler alert: it involves social media platforms.Radio Schuman is hosted and produced by Maïa de la Baume, with journalist and production assistant Eleonora Vasques, audio editing by David Brodheim and Georgios Leivaditis.

Project 2025 is a policy blueprint developed by the Heritage Foundation to guide a potential second term for former President Donald Trump. Among its various proposals, it aims to implement significant changes across multiple areas of governance, including the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and its approach to media regulation.Recently, a new nominee for the FCC, associated with Trump, has promised to integrate the principles of Project 2025 into the agency's governance. This nomination highlights the influence that Project 2025 could potentially have on shaping media policy in the United States. The blueprint advocates for a regulatory environment that may prioritize conservative values and aims to make substantial reforms in how media and communications are managed.One of the key components of Project 2025 related to the FCC is the decentralization of media power. The plan includes proposals to reconsider existing media ownership rules, potentially allowing for increased consolidation within the industry. This could result in major changes in how information is disseminated and who controls the narrative within American media.Additionally, Project 2025 suggests revising content moderation practices, particularly concerning perceived bias against conservative viewpoints on social media platforms. The proposed changes could involve stricter regulations on tech companies to ensure a more balanced approach to content management that recognizably supports free speech principles from a conservative perspective.The FCC's role in managing the national telecommunications infrastructure could also be impacted. Project 2025 emphasizes a push towards deregulating certain aspects of telecom operations, fostering increased competition, and incentivizing investment in rural broadband expansion. This means a focus on market-driven solutions rather than stringent regulatory oversight, which has historically been a point of contention between different political ideologies.By aligning the FCC with the strategies outlined in Project 2025, the vision is to create a media landscape that some conservatives argue would be freer of alleged biases and more reflective of a broader range of opinions, particularly amplifying those that align with conservative perspectives.As Trump's nominee looks to bring these governance styles to the FCC, it is clear that the forthcoming decisions could significantly impact the balance of media influence, ownership, and the regulations governing communications in the United States. The ongoing development and potential implementation of Project 2025 remain pivotal, as they will likely shape not only the FCC's future but also the broader media and telecommunications sectors. Such changes underscore the importance of understanding the implications of Project 2025's approach, as they represent a clear departure from existing regulatory frameworks. Overall, Project 2025's vision for the FCC reflects a broader strategy of conservative policy realignment with aims that stretch across various dimensions of American governance, with media regulation marked as a critical area of focus.

In an article published on the BBC website on 6th November 2024 entitled, ‘Australia plans social media ban for under-16s', the Australian government says it will introduce "world-leading" legislation to ban children under 16 from social media. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said the proposed laws, to be tabled in parliament next week, were aimed at mitigating the "harm" social media was inflicting on Australian children. In this episode of Pathway to Peace, the presenters examine the effect of social media on childhood depression and whether social media could even be regulated. What guidance can we draw upon from Islamic ethics to help navigate the online world.

Hosts: Greg Skordas and Adam Gardiner In another recent ruling, the Supreme Court pushed back on how much the government can regulate social media. Florida and Texas had taken harder stances, but the Court said it was too far and pushed the issue back down to lower courts. The KSL at Night hosts talk about social media usage in children and ways the state of Utah is working to protect kids from its harms.

The Supreme Court hears arguments on two state laws Monday — one in Texas and one in Florida — that seek to punish social media platforms over allegations they censor conservative speech. The legal force fighting these state laws is itself a group with conservative leanings called NetChoice, which has emerged as Big Tech’s top political lobbyist. And it’s going after social media crackdowns in blue states too, like the California Age-Appropriate Design Code Act, which required that platforms put in stronger default data privacy protections for younger users. Wherever a social media regulation pops up, NetChoice, it seems, is there. Isaiah Poritz of Bloomberg Law has been reporting on the organization.

This Day in Legal History: National Banking Act On this day in legal history, February 26 marks a significant national moment with President Abraham Lincoln's signing of the National Banking Act into law in 1863. This significant legislation established the framework for the American banking charter system, introducing a standardized currency and founding the Office of the Comptroller of Currency (OCC) within the Treasury Department. Aimed at consolidating the nation's financial resources to support the Union's efforts during the Civil War, the Act encouraged banks to invest in federal rather than state bonds. Despite its noble intentions to unify the banking system and raise funds for the war, the Act fell short of its financial goals, leading to its refinement and eventual replacement by the National Banking Act of 1864. This initial attempt at banking reform, however, laid the groundwork for the modern American financial infrastructure and represents a foundational moment in U.S. legal and financial history.The Supreme Court's deliberation on the copyright damages case, Warner Chappell Music Inc. v. Nealy, brings into focus the application of the "discovery rule" in copyright law, a principle allowing for the pause of a statute of limitations when a violation cannot be timely discovered. This principle was scrutinized during the oral arguments on February 21, with the court reevaluating its presence in copyright legislation amid Justice Antonin Scalia's historical skepticism, likening it to "bad wine of a recent vintage." The justices, particularly Samuel Alito and Neil Gorsuch, hinted at the possibility of deferring the decision pending the resolution of another related case, Hearst Newspapers LLC v. Martinelli, to first determine the fundamental applicability of the discovery rule to copyright law.Despite the circuit courts' unanimous agreement on some form of the copyright discovery rule, its application remains inconsistent and unclear, fueling ongoing debate among copyright lawyers. The Supreme Court's current review could redefine the rule's existence and application, influenced by a contemporary inclination towards a more textual interpretation of laws and less reliance on circuit court consensus.The controversy stems from Nealy's lawsuit against Warner, alleging unauthorized use of his music rights acquired in 2008, which he discovered only in 2016 due to personal circumstances. The Eleventh Circuit's stance, recognizing the discovery rule, allowed for a broader scope of damages, challenging Warner's appeal and the Supreme Court's previous rulings that rejected other discovery rules.The timing of the court's consideration of Warner's case, juxtaposed with the pending Hearst petition, raises speculation about the justices' strategic approach to resolving the underlying legal question of the discovery rule's relevance to copyright law. The Supreme Court's decision could potentially consolidate or hold off on Warner's case in anticipation of addressing the broader issue in Martinelli, indicating a strategic pause to ensure a comprehensive examination of the discovery rule's place in copyright jurisprudence.This case highlights a pivotal moment in copyright law, where the Supreme Court's verdict could either affirm the circuit courts' stance on the discovery rule or upend prevailing interpretations, significantly impacting copyright plaintiffs' ability to claim damages for late-discovered infringements. The outcome could redefine legal strategies and principles surrounding copyright claims, emphasizing the court's evolving stance on statutory interpretation and legal precedence.Copyright Damages Case Turns on High Court's Taste for DiscoveryThe Supreme Court is poised to examine two significant cases that originate from Florida and Texas, both challenging state laws designed to regulate social media companies and their content moderation practices. These laws, advocated by Republicans as measures against the perceived censorship of conservative viewpoints by tech giants, have stirred a broad coalition of opponents from across the political spectrum. Advocacy groups, ranging from the libertarian Goldwater Institute to the progressive Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights Under Law, alongside national security officials from various administrations, have submitted amicus briefs. These briefs collectively caution against these laws, arguing they threaten free speech and could hinder efforts to manage harmful content online.The contested laws prohibit major social media platforms from censoring content based on viewpoints, demanding transparency in content moderation processes. However, appellate courts have delivered divergent opinions on their legality, highlighting a deep rift over how these regulations intersect with the First Amendment and the rights of private companies versus the public interest.The US Supreme Court's intervention in Moody v. NetChoice and NetChoice v. Paxton seeks to address this legal discord, with implications far beyond the ideological battle lines initially drawn. Proponents of striking down or cautiously reviewing the laws argue they could restrict the ability of social media firms to curb hate speech and harassment, disproportionately affecting minorities and potentially compromising public safety through the unchecked spread of dangerous content.The wide array of organizations opposing the laws underscores the complexity of balancing free speech rights with the need for responsible content moderation on digital platforms. Despite their political origins, the cases challenge the Court to make a nuanced judgment that transcends partisan divisions, focusing instead on the broader implications for individual rights and societal welfare.Top Court Social Media Cases Unite Odd Bedfellows on Free SpeechUS Supreme Court to weigh Florida, Texas laws constraining social media companies | ReutersIn response to a sluggish initial public offering (IPO) market, companies are increasingly leveraging cornerstone investors to mitigate the risks associated with going public. These investors commit to purchasing shares early on, often at a more favorable value, and are highlighted in the IPO prospectus, providing a level of confidence and stability to the offering. Notably, cornerstone investors played a significant role in nearly all large IPOs in 2023, a trend expected to continue as the market regains momentum. Despite a significant drop in IPO activity last year, with the total value of IPOs hitting a decade low, lawyers remain optimistic about a revival in offerings across various sectors, including consumer retail, tax, energy, and infrastructure by 2025.Reddit Inc.'s recent filing for an IPO and successful listings by BrightSpring Health Services Inc. and CG Oncology Inc. signal a potential uptick in market activity. Legal practices are poised to benefit from an increase in IPO-related work, especially after relying on litigation and bankruptcy practices to sustain demand amid last year's downturn. Cornerstone investing, gaining prominence since regulatory changes in 2019, has become a strategic tool for de-risking IPOs in a challenging market environment.Companies like Arm Holdings Plc have successfully utilized cornerstone investments to attract significant attention to their IPOs, securing major clients like Apple Inc., Nvidia Corp., and Alphabet Inc. as investors. While the broader market conditions remain challenging, with many companies postponing public offerings due to low valuations and high borrowing costs, the strategic use of cornerstone investors offers a pathway to liquidity and public market entry, particularly for firms in the biotech, health, and energy sectors that require substantial capital for growth and development.IPO Lawyers See Cornerstone Investors Boost Deals in Slow MarketHenry Barbour, a Mississippi committeeman for the Republican National Committee (RNC), has proposed resolutions aimed at halting the party's financial support for Donald Trump's legal battles as he faces numerous criminal trials and civil case judgments. These resolutions also seek to enforce the RNC's neutrality in the presidential race until a candidate secures the necessary delegates for the nomination. Barbour's initiative reflects a desire to redirect the party's focus towards winning elections rather than financing legal fees for its leading candidate, emphasizing that Trump should independently manage his legal challenges.To advance these resolutions to a vote among the RNC's 168 committee members, Barbour must secure two cosponsors from at least 10 states by a specified deadline. Despite predicting their likely defeat if brought to a vote, this move underscores a broader debate within the party regarding its support for Trump, who remains a dominant figure seeking to consolidate his influence, evidenced by his campaign's significant legal expenses and his efforts to position allies, including Lara Trump, in key RNC roles.The discussion around the RNC's financial involvement in Trump's legal issues comes as the former president continues to assert his innocence amidst accumulating legal and financial pressures. This internal party challenge coincides with Trump's campaign to reinforce his status as the Republican presidential nominee against potential contenders like Nikki Haley, highlighting the intricate balance between party loyalty, legal entanglements, and the broader electoral strategy against Democrats.Republican seeks to bar party from paying Trump's legal bills | Reuters Get full access to Minimum Competence - Daily Legal News Podcast at www.minimumcomp.com/subscribe

In the absence of regulation, we are ultimately at the mercy of social media platforms and their algorithms. This week, host Elisa welcomes Joshua Tucker, Professor of Politics at NYU, to discuss his extensive research on American elections, including voter influence through social media and how broad public opinions are formed on and off these platforms. How do you go about accessing this kind of data from platforms like Twitter, Facebook and TikTok? Does Youtube's algorithm push people towards extreme content? And how can we better regulate TikTok in particular, a Chinese controlled platform that's gained huge popularity in the U.S.?

In 2021, a famous Vietnamese businesswoman hosted a three-hour long Facebook livestream, in which she named and shamed celebrities for their controversial public behaviours. This formed part of a regular pattern of personal attacks, in which she weaponised livestreaming to denounce media and charity organisations in front of huge online audiences. This case marked a turning point in Vietnam, forcing the government to contend with growing political activity in the online environment, and prompting new digital media regulation. In this episode, Dr Jonathon Hutchinson joins Dr Natali Pearson to discuss this case and other examples of online socio-political activism in Vietnam, reflecting on the tension between social media influencing and digital media regulation, and highlighting its potential positive and negative effects.

The Internet hasn't just disrupted the media business in this millennium so far: it's transformed it - and, in some cases, overwhelmed it. As he steps down after two decades at Internet NZ, Jordan Carter looks back on how the web has become now the main means of reaching people - and the problems that brings with it. 

On today's episode, we discuss the social media regulations coming this year, whether virtual try-on will ever take off, how not to interrupt the consumer, whether shipping is the new ecommerce frontier, Formula One racing's newfound US popularity, an unpopular opinion about in-store shopping, some facts about sea creatures, and more. Tune in to the discussion with our senior director of Briefings Stephanie Taglianetti, director of reports editing Rahul Chadha, and analyst Bill Fisher.   For sponsorship opportunities contact us:      advertising@insiderintelligence.com.   For more information visit:   https://www.insiderintelligence.com/contact/advertise/ Have questions or just want to say hi?

Rounding out this 3-episode arc of the current state of social media platforms is the question of government regulation. We know social media companies aren't as forthright as they could be about how their platforms work. And we know social media has fundamentally impacted politics and our health. So what's the government doing about social media? Top executives across Meta, Twitter, TikTok, YouTube, and Snap have all been grilled on Capitol Hill. Lawmakers have introduced bills that try to take on issues like addictive algorithms and surveillance advertising. But so far, nothing concrete has taken shape. The European Union is way ahead of the US in regulating social media. So what will it take to catch up? And more importantly what does effective regulation even look like?

The Chief Censor's Office used to worry about the odd boundary-pushing book, film or video game. These days it's  extreme stuff published online that forms the bulk of the work. David Shanks leaves the top job as the government embarks on a re-jig of regulating all media content to “better protect us from harm.” Could that compromise the media's fundamental freedoms?

Democrats & Leftists Begin REVENGE On Elon Musk For Buying Twitter, Call For Social Media Regulation. The Biden administration and Democrats are calling for reforms to section 230 to control 'disinformation.' Smear pieces, exposes and laws are all being thrown at Elon Musk following his purchase of Twitter. But Twitter hasn't even officially changed hands yet and Elon hasn't done anything. Already left and Democrats are planning how to prevent republicans from using Twitter the way they did. #ElonMusk #Democrats #Republicans Become A Member And Protect Our Work at http://www.timcast.com Learn more about your ad choices.

The United States Congress has before it dozens of bills intended to rein in social media platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and Twitter. This raft of proposed legislation is in response to various harms that have come to light over the past few years, including dangers to democracy, harassment and hate speech, concerns over safety (especially for children), and various ways the platforms reinforce inequities and permit discrimination.  One agency in the federal government arguably has the power to take action on these issues with its current authority- the Federal Trade Commission, or FTC. But there are a variety of legislative proposals that would clarify the FTC's role with regard to social media, and even provide it with substantial new resources to police the harms these massive companies produce.  The https://bhr.stern.nyu.edu/ (NYU Center for Business and Human Rights), with which I have https://bhr.stern.nyu.edu/polarization-report-page (collaborated) in the past, last month produced a https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5b6df958f8370af3217d4178/t/62153d0793b1b95efdbccd34/1645559049492/NYU+CBHR+FTC_FINAL+Feb+22.pdf (substantial report) detailing principles and policy goals intended to clarify the debate in Congress and shape an agenda for the FTC, recommending that Congress direct the FTC to oversee the social media industry under the consumer protection authority that the agency already exercises in its regulation of other industries.  To learn more about the report and its recommendations, I spoke to Paul Barrett, the Center's Deputy Director. Paul joined the Center in September 2017 after working for more than three decades as a journalist and author focusing on the intersection of business, law, and society.
