Trump sued over $100,000-a-month early-access offer to Truth Social posts
Business2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported50m ago
The Intercept and the Freedom of the Press Foundation filed a lawsuit on Wednesday against Donald Trump’s media company regarding a new subscription service. The product allows paying Wall Street firms to receive early access to posts made by the former president on his Truth Social platform for fees reaching $100,000 per month.
The plaintiffs allege that the offering violates the First Amendment and constitutes an attempt to sell privileged access to information generated in the president’s official capacity. The legal challenge centers on the implications of monetizing early access to communications from a public figure.
