Trump sued over Truth Social advance access sale
Two US media groups, The Intercept and Freedom of the Press Foundation, filed a lawsuit against Trump Media and Technology Group (TMTG) on Wednesday alleging that the company's plan to charge for early access to Trump's often market-moving posts on Truth Social is "profoundly corrupt" and unconstitutional. The lawsuit, filed in New York, states that Trump stands to gain financially from providing market-moving government information to those willing to pay his personal company. The lawsuit claims that the scheme is extraordinary, corrupt and unconstitutional.
