ResearchBuzz: Firehose<p>Deadline: Judge Rules FTC Investigation Of Media Matters Violates First Amendment. “A federal judge has restricted the Federal Trade Commission‘s investigation of Media Matters, the progressive watchdog group, finding that the agency was likely engaged in retaliatory conduct in violation of the First Amendment.”</p><p><a href="https://rbfirehose.com/2025/08/18/deadline-judge-rules-ftc-investigation-of-media-matters-violates-first-amendment/" class="" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://rbfirehose.com/2025/08/18/deadline-judge-rules-ftc-investigation-of-media-matters-violates-first-amendment/</a></p>
Eric Darnley Small<p>A federal judge blocked the FTC’s investigation into Media Matters, ruling it violated the group’s free speech rights after Media Matters published research critical of Elon Musk and X (formerly Twitter). The judge called the FTC inquiry—launched under Trump’s appointee and targeting alleged collusion with other ad groups—a “retaliatory act,” halting it for now.
