Babylon Bee scores free-speech win as judge rejects Hawaii's ban on election deepfakes
A federal judge has struck down a Hawaii law banning "materially deceptive" media and advertising in state elections, handing another First Amendment victory to the Babylon Bee.
U.S. District Judge Shanlyn Park found that the 2024 law known as Act 191 violates the First and Fourteenth amendments with its ban on "materially deceptive media" that present a "risk of harming the reputation or electoral prospects of a candidate in an election" or changing "voting behavior."
