Lawyer here. The answer to your question is no, BUT we can all sue for the pattern of violating each state's consumer protection act, which would have the same effect. The media "sells" us its product by mislabeling it as news or fact or vetted journalism. The public relies upon the media's special status to inform us of important things we can't possibly fully research on our own time.
The consumer protection act prohibits an unfair or deceptive act in trade or commerce in matters vitally affecting the public interest. Damages start at a refund of all the fees we pay for the news, from subscriptions to a portion of your cable bill each month. The fees would be staggering. The lawyer who champions this case would make hundreds of millions in fees. But he would need to weather years of expensive discovery, motions, etc.
If any of you know a litigator, hit him or her up about this. Someone will bite.
what about holding facebook accountable for censoring voter fraud and tagging my posts to make me look crazy to my peers? mainly just airing my grievances here :)
I think you are fucked for Facebook. Move off and take as many friends with you to a free speech platform. you can't save everyone.
Interesting. Thanks for this, I don't know a litigator but I'm sure we can find someone, absolutely.
I emailed Mr. Wood. He may know of one himself.
Okay Lawyer, ready for the biggest case of your career? Let's bankrupt these fools. Nothing less will do.
