Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Musk's X Sues New York Over Hate Speech Disclosure Law
Caption: Musk’s X Sues New York Over Hate Speech Disclosure Law. Elon Musk's social media platform X is suing New York State over a law requiring companies to disclose how they monitor hate speech and extremism. The lawsuit, filed on Tuesday, argues that the law forces platforms to reveal "sensitive and controversial speech" protected under the First Amendment. The Stop Hiding Hate Act, passed in December, mandates social media companies to report their efforts in eliminating hate on their platforms. X contends that deciding acceptable content is a matter for private companies, not the government. New York lawmakers defend the law, calling platforms like X “cesspools of hate speech” and arguing that it does not violate free speech rights. This lawsuit follows a previous success by X in blocking a similar law in California. Instructions: THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
