news sites dont have the same protections because they can be sued for content on their site because they are a publisher not a public platform like social media sites are,,,
News sites cannot be sued for content that users submit, such as in comments sections, just like social media.
Social media can be sued for content their employees write on their website as part of their job, such as on official Facebook posts, just like news sites.
My friend, I am WAY better educated on this topic than you.
the comments section is not their site,,,just like social media employees are part of the site not the people posting on the platform,,
your education is lacking in accuracy,,,
but I will say that is a fine play on words you did there,, alinsky would be proud of you,,
