In March, a CNN investigation into a "Global Academy" of 62 million men allegedly drugging and assaulting women broke the internet. But the most viral story of the year was built on a foundation of misleading statistics and bad journalism.

Journalist Kat Tenbarge joins me to debunk the "62 Million Men" narrative. We dig into how this story was used to manufacture consent for dangerous new censorship laws and who is actually behind the movement to repeal Section 230.

In this video, we cover:

  • Why the "62 million" figure is a misleading traffic stat, not a count of criminals.

  • The connection between CNN’s reporting and far-right Christian nationalist groups like Exodus Cry.

  • How the "Global Academy" branding was manufactured from a single interview quote.

  • The real-world harm of FOSTA-SESTA and why new "safety" bills like KOSA actually endanger victims.

  • How mainstream media organizations lobby against free speech to protect their own business interests.

Don't let emotional propaganda dictate tech policy. We look at the systemic failures of the legal system and why villainizing platforms instead of perpetrators is a losing battle for women's rights. If you’ve seen the “62 million men” claim, you need to watch this.
