NewsGuard Sues FTC Over Alleged Press Censorship

NewsGuard Technologies sued the Federal Trade Commission and Chairman Andrew Ferguson last month in U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C., seeking to halt an FTC investigation into the company's credibility ratings of news outlets. The FTC says NewsGuard aims to suppress conservative speech, while NewsGuard counters the probe is politically motivated and could force disclosure of internal documents and subscriber lists, affecting advertisers and AI firms.
