7.0
This week, legal scholar Jonathan Turley told Fox News Rundown he is skeptical that lawsuits alleging Meta and Google designed addictive algorithms to target minors will overcome First Amendment hurdles in a landmark California trial. Turley also discussed his new book Rage and the Republic and warned that social media and AI's evolution poses democratic challenges. Fox News Rundown Extra will air the full interview.
