friend,
2022 was a big year in our fight against disinformation, as we pushed social-media companies for real change — because going head-to-head with powerful tech CEOs is part of our DNA.
We launched the Fix the Feed campaign earlier this year with dozens of allies to demand that the largest social-media platforms, including Twitter, adopt safety protocols to minimize the worst content in advance of the 2022 midterms.
This work came to a head with the release of our Empty Promises report this fall, which evaluated the readiness of Meta, TikTok, Twitter and YouTube to curb the spread of election disinformation and extremism. Our research found that Twitter was among the worst offenders — and these problems existed well before Elon Musk took the helm of the company and made things much, much worse.
And the #StopToxicTwitter campaign we launched — which is calling on companies to suspend all advertising on the platform — led to a meeting that civil-rights leaders and I had with Musk himself. Since the campaign kicked off, half of Twitter’s top-100 advertisers — including Chevrolet, Chipotle and Ford — have stopped advertising on the platform.
Thanks to supporters like you, we are making waves in our fight to protect everyone’s access to truthful information — but there is still a lot of work to do ahead of the next election cycle. Please donate now while your gift will be DOUBLED, going twice as far to fuel our critical campaigns in 2023 and beyond.

As we respond to Elon Musk’s disastrous takeover of Twitter and prepare for the new political environment in Congress next year, here’s what we know we have to do in our fight to stop disinformation:
* Continue to build on the success of our #StopToxicTwitter campaign by keeping the pressure on Twitter advertisers;
* Fight Trump’s return to social media as he spreads disinformation and ramps up his 2024 presidential campaign;
* Stop bad bills that would harm our communities, and;
* Get ready NOW for 2024 by pushing ALL social-media companies to curb the spread of election disinformation and extremism across their networks.
And with your support, we’ll continue to put forward new plans and strategies to create the transformative changes and media structures that will truly support a just, multiracial democracy.
Now is the time to make your very first gift to Free Press. A generous donor will DOUBLE your donation to make TWO TIMES the impact. Act now!
