Dear Viewer, Facebook removed The HighWire page on Saturday night. - With it, 360,000 followers lost critical, scientific and fair information that we post each and every day.
- With it, our 30,000,000 views of The HighWire were unpublished.
- With it, our 4 million weekly viewers of The HighWire on Facebook lost all access to our content.
The brazen censorship by Big Government and Big Tech has crossed multiple lines--and anyone who knows me knows we’re not going to roll-over and play dead. Nope. We’re fighting back. We’re suing Facebook. And we need your help. Here’s why: The Informed Consent Action Network is launching a Legal Defense Fund in order to protect our First Amendment rights of free speech and a free press. As you can imagine, fighting Facebook is an expensive endeavor. Facebook will not go down without a serious legal fight and we need to bring the same level of resources, legal and experts, to bear in order to prevail within the legal system. I cannot share all of the details right now, but suffice it to say that our team has worked around the clock since the news hit that Facebook shut us down. And as you know, this comes a few months after YouTube, owned by Google, did the same thing. The bottom line: you and I have become too powerful for Big Government and Big Tech to sit back and watch, and their aim is to put ICAN and The HighWire OUT OF BUSINESS. There can be no dissent, no alternative view, no questions asked. The propaganda being forced on us by Big Government and Big Tech is literally having a chilling affect on what it means to be an American. So, instead of debating our non-partisan, unbiased view of science--they take the easy way out: they throttle down our page--from 4 million page views a week down to 1 million, then they flag every single one of our posts, then they eliminate us from their platform altogether. These extreme actions violate the Bill of Rights, they violate what it means to be an American, they violate our liberty and the right to free speech and a free press! They violate these rights because absent the hand of government, these tech companies would not have engaged in this censorship. Who appointed Facebook and their government handlers, such as Rep. Adam Schiff, to be the final arbiter of what is news, and what is not, so that they can cancel anyone at any time without any regard? With your help, that is going to change right now. There is so much more that is coming--and I cannot wait to share it with you in the coming days! Be Bold! Be Strong! Be Brave! Del Bigtree, CEO Informed Consent Action Network Host, The HighWire P.S. -- Your gift to our Legal Fund will help ICAN and The HighWire sue Facebook. When you donate, be sure to use the drop down box and select “Legal Fund.” All gifts are tax-deductible. |
