“Media Matters – a […] Soros-funded, non-profit propaganda group – has filed a lawsuit against Texas AG Ken Paxton, claiming Paxton’s investigation into [them] is unlawful and infringes on its First Amendment rights.
This comes after Paxton opened an investigation into Media Matters following its report alleging that advertisements from major companies ran beside pro-Hitler and antisemitic content on a social media platform, known as X.
Following the report […] companies including Disney, Apple, and IBM proceeded to withdraw their advertisements from the platform.
The row escalated when X executives castigated Media Matters, arguing the research technique it used to find the antisemitic content was not indicative of the average user’s platform use.
X spokesmen have since assured that advertisements were not deliberately placed next to the antisemitic posts, which were subsequently demonetized. In the wake of the report, the owner of X, Elon Musk, initiated a lawsuit against Media Matters accusing the organization of unlawful interference with X’s advertiser relationships.
Now, Media Matters has launched its own lawsuit against Paxton seeking to permanently halt his investigation. […]
The suit […] alleges that Paxton’s office demanded a wide range of documents related to Media Matters’ reporting in violation of the 1st and 14th Amendments, as well as journalist “shield” laws in Maryland and Washington DC.”
Worth noting: AG Ken Paxton is not alone; in addition to the TX based probe, Missouri AG Andrew Bailey has also launched an investigation into Media Matters for allegedly engaging in the same kinds of fraud, deceptions, and abuses of their status as a nonprofit.
