It Begins: California Senator Introduces Bill to Kill Free Speech...

• http://www.thegatewaypundit.com, Jim Hoft

Jon Rappaport reported:

The bill is titled "SB1424 Internet: social media: false information: strategic plan."

It targets social media based in California. But as you read the bill, you see it appears to define social media as any Internet blog, website, or communication.

SB1424 is brief. Read it:

This bill would require any person who operates a social media, as defined, Internet Web site with a physical presence in California to develop a strategic plan to verify news stories shared on its Web site. The bill would require the plan to include, among other things, a plan to mitigate the spread of false information through news stories, the utilization of fact-checkers to verify news stories, providing outreach to social media users, and placing a warning on a news story containing false information.
