remember the usama bin laden letter that went viral and there was support for it by americans on tiktoks, leaving young people vulnerable to misinformation by a chinese algorithm. if you level it that way they will say okay, this is bad, shouldn't be getting news from this device or this platform. ashley: other than that, i don't think we should be paying attention. now this. senate democrats just subpoenaed the ceos of 3 social media companies. which ceos and why? lauren: online child sexual exploitation. lawmakers want to make sure it's not happening online. comedies are x, snap, and discord. looking at the ceos, discord's jason, all subpoenaed to testify december 6th, the senate judiciary committee, the woman on the right is the first trip as ex-ceo to capitol hill and i say good luck. ashley: i'm sure she's looking forward to that but we told you how school closures have a damaged impact, we are learning how devastating wearing a mask was. lydia is at an elementary school in new jersey, that's the question. how damaging was wearing a mask for kids? >> i will let you answer that ques

reporter: one of the biggest drivers of this is tiktok and what's going on on tiktok, sharing usama bin laden's leica gospel is important but 2 and most critically is the state of our colleges and universities where if you believe in the palestinian cause you are allowed to speak, even allowed to bully people who have a different type of view, just this week we had a resolution to defund colleges who support the palestinian cause who don't allow free speech on their campuses and 55 democrats voted against that. there's a big divide among the democrat party on how to deal with the more eccentric characters of their conference and look no further than the colleges and universities which are on the forefront of the battle ground for the hearts and minds of the american people. stuart: what amazed me is some people appearing on tiktok in favor of osama's letter saying it was dead right. if you read that letter he's talking about taking women out of any form of education, can never get out of the house or meet strangers, got to wear a burqa, how come the left can possibly think that is good? >> it i
