The House wants 8chan’s owner to testify on the El Paso manifesto
It’s at least the third incident this year in which manifestos tied to mass shootings have popped up on 8chan.
“Americans deserve to know what, if anything, you, as the owner and operator, are doing to address the proliferation of extremist content on 8chan,” Thompson and Rogers added. Since the El Paso shooting, several lawmakers have called on 8chan to invest in additional resources to combat violent and racist rhetoric. And at least one, Rep. Ro Khanna , has publicly urged the site to join a counterterrorism consortium founded in 2017 by Facebook, Twitter, Microsoft and Google-owned YouTube — the Global Internet Forum to Counter Terrorism.
