Wow. The Jan 6 committee reportedly suppressed key info about how right-wing activists exploited social media to spread violent rhetoric ahead of the Capitol attack — & how tech platforms let them do it — for fear of offending Republicans & tech companies.

What the Jan. 6 probe found out about social media, but didn’t report

The Jan. 6 committee's 845-page report offered few details of social media's role in the Capitol riot. Transcripts and an unreleased memo shows the committee knew more.
