Chelsea Greene Publishing is suing Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren for allegedly abusing her political authority to push Amazon to censor their book titled, "The Truth About COVID-19." The publisher alleges serious First Amendment violations.
On September 7, 2021, Warren sent an official letter to Amazon CEO Andy Jassy urging him to suppress the bestseller written by Joseph Mercola and Ronnie Cummins in Amazon's search results for "Perpetuating dangerous conspiracies about COVID-19 and false and misleading information about vaccines."
Chelsea Greene responded by filing a lawsuit accusing Warren of "Violating the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution by seeking to stop booksellers from selling and/or promoting" their book.
According to Warren's letter, a search on Amazon's website using the keywords "COVID-19" and "Vaccine" would list the book as the first result.
Warren concluded the letter by calling Amazon to modify its algorithms "So that they no longer do so."
"The term 'vaccine misinformation,' as Warren uses it, refers to any speech challenging the safety and efficacy of the COVID vaccines, even when that speech consists of factually accurate information or reasonable and protected opinion," the statement said.
"Plaintiffs allege Warren's letter contained blatant falsehoods and unsubstantiated accusations about the book and that Warren's claims, even if correct, would not alter the book's constitutional protectedness."
It's becoming increasingly difficult to discern fact from fiction, and unfortunately the media has a strong bias. They spin stories to make conservatives look bad and will go to great lengths to avoid reporting on the good that comes from conservative policies. There are a few shining lights in the media landscape-brave conservative outlets that report the truth and offer a different perspective. We must support conservative outlets like this one and ensure that our voices are heard.
