The World Federation of Advertisers is discontinuing its Global Alliance for Responsible Media initiative after being accused in an antitrust lawsuit of conspiring to prevent advertising revenue from reaching digital media outlets that allowed conservative speech.
Elon Musk filed the lawsuit, alleging that GARM conspired with others to prevent ad revenue from media outlets like his company, which permitted conservative speech questioning government and mainstream media narratives.
X CEO Linda Yaccarino stated, 'No small group should be able to monopolize what gets monetized', regarding the discontinuation of the GARM initiative. She expressed hope for ecosystem-wide reform.
Daily Wire co-founder Ben Shapiro testified at a U.S. House Judiciary Committee hearing, accusing legacy media and political allies of working with online advertising gatekeepers to hinder conservative news outlets' advertising revenue opportunities.
