FTC Halts Advertising Censors
The Federal Trade Commission has won concessions from three advertising firms — Dentsu, Publicis and WPP — that spearheaded efforts to bloc advertising on conservative sites, like InfoWars or The Daily Caller.
The FTC, chaired by Andrew Ferguson, was joined by eight states in battling the advertising agencies. These agencies were essentially in lock step with leftist censorship efforts beginning in 2017 — a year after President Donald Trump took office in his first term. These efforts, of course, were designed to strip away all advertising on InfoWars and The Daily Caller, rendering them null and void.
Here, Mike Benz, the executive director of the Foundation for Freedom Online, outlines how the FTC is working to ensure free and open media, as opposed to the lockstep liberalism and fake news that the Democrats want to impose.
