Murthy v. Missouri (Standing / Social Media / First Amendment)

Release Date:

Murthy v. MissouriMissouri, alongside a few other states, sued the federal government alleging that certain federal officials illegally coordinated with social media companies to effectively silence certain viewpoints -- which they claim, amounts to these companies becoming state actors within the meaning of First Amendment jurisprudence.    Held: Neither the individual nor the state plaintiffs have established Article III standing to seek an injunction against any defendant.  Reasoning that the objection is with the platforms, not with the named defendants, therefore, an injunction would be improper. Read by Jeff Barnum.
