Trump’s TikTok deal grants unprecedented federal oversight of content reaching 170 million Americans. The President handpicked investors including the Murdoch media empire that owns Fox News. Oracle will control TikTok’s algorithm under government security guidelines. This creates dangerous precedent for executive influence over information platforms. NYU and Global Witness research confirms TikTok approved 90% of election disinformation advertisements during testing. Romanian intelligence exposed TikTok’s role in election manipulation and foreign interference that helped a far-right candidate win. Network Contagion Research Institute documented systematic algorithm bias favoring authoritarian content over human rights information. Studies prove TikTok users develop more favorable views toward China’s human rights record through algorithmic exposure. Federal algorithm oversight combined with partisan media ownership creates unprecedented censorship potential. The platform’s visual format makes misinformation detection nearly impossible. Research confirms TikTok amplifies extremist content more effectively than other platforms. This arrangement enables systematic manipulation of political discourse before future elections. Investigate this deal through congressional oversight hearings. Demand public disclosure of Oracle’s content moderation guidelines. Require transparency in algorithm recommendation criteria. Pass legislation preventing executive officials from selecting media company ownership structures. Democracy requires independent media, not government-supervised platforms controlled by partisan billionaires.
