Quick Glance: Elon Musk and the Support of Far-Right in Brazil

A court in Brazil is planning an investigation against X owner Elon Musk for alleged obstruction of justice, following Musk's reactivation of accounts belonging to far-right individuals that were flagged by the Brazilian government for removal.

Under Musk's leadership, X has transformed into a sanctuary for the far right and dissemination of misinformation, resulting in an escalation of hate speech on the platform.

Experts caution that Musk is establishing a dangerous precedent by protecting and promoting the far right on his platform, regardless of local regulations or public opinion.

Despite Musk's claims of advocating for free speech, the implementation of these principles on the platform has been inconsistent under his direction, especially concerning government requests to deactivate accounts.

Quick Glance: Record Audience at NCAA Women's Championship

South Carolina's victory over Caitlin Clark and Iowa in Sunday's women's NCAA championship game garnered a preliminary average viewership of 18.7 million on ABC and ESPN.

Nielsen's final numbers on Tuesday may reveal an increase in viewership.

It marks the most-watched basketball game since 2019, when the men's NCAA title game between Virginia and Texas Tech averaged 19.6 million viewers on CBS.

The women's final also recorded the highest viewership for a Sunday afternoon sporting event on ESPN and ABC since early 2021.
