You Can't Post That!
Do you ever feel nervous before posting on social media? Have you ever censored your own thoughts because you worry that you could be criticized or even canceled for posting your beliefs? Dr. Phil and his guests discuss the self-censorship debate on the internet and social media, including the fundamental misunderstanding about the true extent of "freedom of speech" under the First Amendment. Kimberly, a University of Tennessee doctoral candidate, claims her college violated her freedom of speech after a professional conduct committee determined that she had posted unprofessional content to her social media. What rights do colleges have to spy on personal social media posts? Also, Tehran Von Ghasri, a comedian who performs on college campuses, says cancel culture has gone too far. How does the fear of being canceled affect the jokes he performs for college students or content he posts online? Alexandra, a social media influencer and business owner, says giving opinions about COVID got her censored and three accounts closed. What did she say to get canceled? Dr. Phil also talks with Attorney Robert Shibley, a Senior Fellow at the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression (FIRE), who says over half of Americans are not saying how they feel for fear of offending others or being canceled. Jessica Levinson, an attorney and a Clinical Professor of Law at Loyola Law School, provides an explanation on the boundaries of the First Amendment. And, Gabrielle Gambrell, a Columbia University and NYU professor, says that social media sites are obligated to monitor hate and dangerous speech.
