Angelo Carusone

Angelo Carusone is the president of Media Matters for America, a progressive media watchdog known for its scrutiny of conservative and far-right news outlets. Under his leadership, Media Matters has become a prominent voice in the fight against misinformation and has faced legal challenges, including a lawsuit from Elon Musk after the organization reported on antisemitic content on his platform, X. Recently, Carusone has been vocal about the implications of the Federal Trade Commission's investigation into Media Matters and its communications with advertisers, asserting that the probe is an attempt to intimidate and silence critics of the Trump administration.
