Show Notes

Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg testified today in a landmark trial over whether social media platforms were designed to be addictive to kids. A now-20-year-old plaintiff claims that years on the apps worsened her depression. Meta and Google deny the claims, pointing to built-in safety features. NBC News Senior Legal Correspondent Laura Jarrett explains how this case could reshape the rules for Big Tech and the kids who use it. Plus, FCC Chairman Brendan Carr is weighing in on the clash between CBS and Stephen Colbert, after the network’s lawyers urged him not to air an interview with Texas Senate candidate James Talarico, a Democrat, citing the FCC’s “equal time” rule. NBC News Business Reporter Allie Canal breaks down the implications, for late night and legacy media, of upholding this rule during an election year.
