According to group advisors, the National Religious Broadcasting Agency (NRB) urged Florida lawmakers on Monday to oppose the controversial bill that “has a very realistic potential to weaponize a wave of “laws” against Christian broadcasters.”
Senate Bill 752and is widely criticized by conservatives, so Florida's repeal law will be amended. This limits the damages of honor and loss if withdrawals or modifications are published and forces publishers to also delete online content that contains incorrect information. The bill also points out that if a “rational person” concludes that a statement is false, publishers must act.
The NRB has filed itself as “a nonpartisan international Christian Communicators Association representing the member organizations representing millions of listeners, viewers and readers,” and sent a letter to GOP Senate Speaker Ben Albritton urging lawmakers to oppose lawmakers.
“We urge you and your Senate colleagues to oppose SB 752. The law is well-intentioned, but includes serious flaws that could negatively affect publishers and broadcasters, including religious broadcasters.”

“The most important issue arises from changes related to requests for revision of articles archived on the station's website. Plaintiffs can request changes to old publications on either of two grounds. First, if a statement is found to be false in judicial proceedings, if the publisher or the station admits to receiving such a statement, then the change may be required. “It is the second most problematic provision. The standard for “rational person” is inherently vague in this context and is often a matter of perspective or opinion.” ”
The NRB general advisor explained that “Christian broadcasters often take stances against the views of certain elites within society,” and that SB 752 could trigger the law.
“For example, we say that trans men exist as women, compete for women's sports, and Christian broadcasters compete for women's sports. It's false and honorable. This claim would conclude that trans men are actually women and should be featured in that way,” writes Faris.
The ju apprentices discovered that CNN committed a honour and damages against a Navy veteran, and that the settlement reached punitive damages.
“This possibility opens up a very realistic possibility of weaponizing the wave of 'law' for Christian broadcasters. “First Amendment rights are valuable, and tampering with old-fashioned legal standards is a task that should be done with the greatest care and accuracy.”
Ferris concluded the letter by urging senators to oppose the bill.
“This law should be defeated for now. If there are other issues this bill is trying to address, I will work with legislators and staff to offer to deal with legitimate issues without risking unexpected harm to broadcasters and publishers.
