BALDWIN: Just into CNN, new details on a potential White House plan to regulate social media content. We are learning a draft executive order could put the Federal Communications Commission in charge of shaping how Twitter and Facebook and other large tech companies curate what appears on their website. CNN's Brian Fung is following this one for us. And so, Brian, please explain.</s>BRAIN FUNG, CNN TECH REPORTER: Well, according to a summary of this draft order that we've received, the White House is considering asking the FCC for new regulations that could shape the way that companies like Facebook and Twitter curate the content that's on their platforms. Now, at the same time, this draft order according to the summary would also affect the Federal Trade Commission and ask them to take these new policies, these new regulations written by the FCC into account as the FCC pursues its own actions against enforcement of companies that it has deemed to have broken the law on anti-trust or consumer protection grounds. Now, legal experts I've spoken to say it's not entirely clear how this proposal could work in practice given these two agencies existing missions, but at the same time, there could be First Amendment questions that are raised here also. But if this proposal does get approved by President Trump, it would represent a significant escalation in terms of his campaign against tech companies and social media websites overall.</s>BALDWIN: Yes. To have the government be in charge. Follow that for us, please. Brian Fung, appreciate you. Coming up next, an incredible moment that played out at Dallas airport.
