New York Post Editorial Cites MRC Study to Demand FTC and Congressional Action Against Big Tech Bias
The New York Post editorial board declared that recent findings prove deep algorithmic bias, creating strong grounds for Congress and the Federal Trade Commission to turn up the heat on Big Tech.
The editorial emphasizes that pre-installed news platforms like Apple News exert massive influence over voters, requiring federal regulators to step in and ensure these platforms do not artificially skew public discourse.
Lawmakers are urged to investigate news aggregators directly and enforce transparency standards if tech companies fail to independently prove their algorithms are neutral.
The Post concluded that if Apple, Google, and other major news aggregators refuse to correct their systematic imbalances, Washington regulatory bodies will have no choice but to take direct action.

MRC Details How Labor Ruling Forced Washington Post to Rehire Columnist Karen Attiah
A labor arbiter ordered The Washington Post to rehire Global Opinions Editor Karen Attiah with full back pay and lost benefits after she was fired over controversial social media posts.
Attiah had been terminated following a series of posts on Bluesky downplaying political violence and using fabricated quotes.
The arbitrator ruled that The Washington Post lacked good cause for termination under its collective bargaining agreement because Attiah had received no prior progressive discipline.
The ruling rejected the argument that Attiah violated company social media policies regarding civil engagement and disparagement based on race or gender.
