Censorship

EA suspended a Battlefield 6 player for using the slang "GGEZ," deemed as "Hateful Conduct," blocking the user for a week. The slang, which means "good game, easy," is often employed sarcastically in gaming. The incident highlights EA's strict conduct policies to ensure an inclusive gaming environment. Critics argue this is another instance of Big Tech censorship, urging more transparency and…

A top Google executive made clear at a Wednesday hearing that the tech giant was proud of its censorship record. This admission may have dire implications for Big Tech’s ability to censor without consequences. 

The 21st annual Free Speech Week marked a pivotal moment in America’s push toward reinvigorating free speech principles, hailed by the Media Research Center (MRC). The late Charlie Kirk, founder of Turning Point USA, was posthumously awarded for his fierce advocacy of free speech rooted in Christian and conservative beliefs. The tribute sparked discussions about growing intolerance and…

On the eve of the 21st annual Free Speech Week, “No Kings” protesters filled the streets, denouncing “The Great Dictator” for trampling the Constitution, especially the First Amendment. The irony was entirely lost on them.

Americans increasingly support the First Amendment as Big Tech platforms and the U.S. government draw down their censorship efforts. This was evident in a 2025 poll showing that over half of Americans strongly disagree that the First Amendment is too broad.

On this 21st annual Free Speech Week, the Media Research Center recognized numerous individuals across the political sphere from the Trump administration to the halls of Congress and from public advocacy to the courts, but none were more deserving than the late Turning Point USA Founder Charlie Kirk. 

In the current climate of shifting political landscapes, MRC celebrated the importance of free speech by honoring Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk with the 2025 MRC Free Speech Award. Amid debates over Big Tech's liability under Section 230, the U.S. Supreme Court has yet to clarify tech platforms' Section 230 protections. Advocates like Governor Greg Abbott, Vice President JD Vance and…

Global censorship has surged in recent years, but a brave few have steadfastly stood against tyrannical regimes attempting to tighten their grip in America and abroad

It's out with one dystopian tactic and on to the next for the British government’s ongoing assault on free speech.

The Media Research Center is proud to recognize President Donald Trump and several members of his administration during the 21st annual Free Speech Week for their unwavering commitment to defending the First Amendment and confronting one of the greatest threats to our constitutional Republic: the Biden administration’s whole-of-society approach to censorship.

The Media Research Center announced Wednesday that it is awarding its annual Free Speech Award exclusively to Charlie Kirk, the late founder of Turning Point USA and a fearless defender of the First Amendment. This approach differs from that taken in 2024, when 35 people were recognized for their strong efforts to defend free speech rights. 

This latest free speech victory could have huge implications for the future of European Union censorship in France. 

A Washington, D.C.-based think tank attacked free speech, FCC Chair Brendan Carr and the Trump administration at a panel largely indistinguishable from the ideological diversity you’d see on an MSNBC segment.

AI chatbots, including ChatGPT and Meta AI, buried and downplayed former President Donald Trump's role in negotiating a recent Israel-Hamas peace deal, often crediting multiple parties instead. Despite Trump's announcement of the deal as part of his "peace plan," the AI responses largely attributed the success to broader diplomatic efforts involving various countries and leaders, including Joe…
