How to watch Facebook, Google and Twitter get grilled (again) by Congress now

Senior executives from Facebook, Google and Twitter will submit on Wednesday to two more grillings by U.S. lawmakers who are investigating Russia’s suspected interference in the 2016 presidential election.

In the morning, it’s the Senate Intelligence Committee; in the afternoon, it’s the House’s panel. And the focus is again on the extent to which Kremlin-backed agents and trolls sought to spread disinformation and extremist content on major social media platforms — and what exactly the U.S. Congress should do about it.

Representing Facebook at the hearing is Colin Stretch, the company’s general counsel; from Google it’ll be Kent Walker, the search giant’s general counsel; and standing in for Twitter is Sean Edgett, the company’s acting general counsel.

The Senate hearing officially begins at 9:30 am ET/6:30 am PT, and you can find video here. The House’s session begins at 2:00 pm ET/11:00am PT, and will be available here.

Yesterday, the Senate Judiciary Committee grilled the same set of tech giants. If you missed it, here’s our recap.

Will you support Vox’s explanatory journalism?

Most news outlets make their money through advertising or subscriptions. But when it comes to what we’re trying to do at Vox, there are a couple of big issues with relying on ads and subscriptions to keep the lights on:

First, advertising dollars go up and down with the economy. We often only know a few months out what our advertising revenue will be, which makes it hard to plan ahead.

Second, we’re not in the subscriptions business. Vox is here to help everyone understand the complex issues shaping the world — not just the people who can afford to pay for a subscription. We believe that’s an important part of building a more equal society. And we can’t do that if we have a paywall.

So even though advertising is still our biggest source of revenue, we also seek grants and reader support. (And no matter how our work is funded, we have strict guidelines on editorial independence.)

If you also believe that everyone deserves access to trusted high-quality information, will you make a gift to Vox today? Any amount helps.
