Gingrich: Twitter treading on thin ice, it’s not fact checking when using left-wing source to get left-wing version
May 28, 2020 | Robert Jonathan

Former U.S. House Speaker Newt Gingrich blasted Twitter for “fact-checking” President Trump’s tweet about fraud in the Democrat vote-by-mail scheme and warned the social media network it is courting disaster buy pursuing anti-conservative censorship that could result in government intervention.

To say the least, President Trump didn’t like it much either, accusing Twitter of stifling free speech.

“I think Twitter is going down a very dangerous path and if they are not careful, they will become a regulated public institution rather than the totally free entrepreneurial institution,” Newt Gingrich asserted.

In an appearance with Sandra Smith on the Fox News Channel show America’s Newsroom, Gingrich also highlighted conservatives should be concerned that Silicon Valley, where Twitter, Facebook, and Google are all headquartered, is “one of the most radical left-wing parts of America. And they expressed that in their biases.”
