White House Communications Director Kate Bedingfield claimed social media companies should be held accountable for so-called misinformation. On Tuesday, Bedingfield spoke with MSBNC’s Mika Brzezinski and said it was a goal of the Joe Biden administration to promote the vaccine.
Bedingfield said that most hospitalizations and deaths came from unvaccinated Americans, which has prevented the U.S. from moving on from the pandemic. While she has blamed social media companies for many of the alleged issues, she claimed the real blame was on conservative media.
