Cameron McTernan: Social Media Throttling News

In today’s digital age, social media platforms have become a primary source of news for millions around the world. But what happens when these platforms start restricting access to quality journalism?

Recently, X—formerly Twitter—introduced changes that drastically limited how news organisations share content, leaving many scrambling just days before the U.S. presidential election.

This shift, along with similar moves by other platforms like Meta and Reddit, has serious implications for how we access information and, ultimately, for the health of our democracies.

Guest: Cameron McTernan, Lecturer of Media and Communication at the University of South Australia

Presenter: Warren Andrew
