Ron Wyden calls for 'consequences' when 'bad actor' content isn't removed from social media

Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., says there should be “consequences” for social media platforms that don’t remove content from somebody who is a “bad actor” like conspiracy theorist Alex Jones.

During an interview with Recode’s Kara Swisher, Wyden said he is working on a privacy bill that will protect people’s data. He stressed that he doesn’t favor government control of private companies, but the Democrat said there needs to be a hard look at the “Alex Jones case.”
