BATTLE FOR WORLD / SPUTNIK NEWS | August 8, 2019: The article highlights that the White House is reportedly circulating drafts of a proposed executive order to address allegations of anti-conservative bias by social media companies after US President Donald Trump calls to explore “all regulatory and legislative solutions” – taking a serious look at using the federal government’s power against Silicon Valley, said Politico.
