Richard Edelman, Advertising Censorship, Disinformation Oxygen
Richard Edelman, CEO of Edelman PR, stated at Davos that businesses must deprive platforms that spread "disinformation" of "oxygen" by pulling advertising dollars. He praised the boycott of Twitter as a necessary step in forcing platforms to align with societal impacts. Critics argue that this approach equates advertising with censorship, as marketing budgets are used to suppress dissenting viewpoints.
