Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Janine Herbst.
Trial continues today in federal court in California as a group of states sues Metta,
parent company of Facebook and Instagram, alleging the platforms are designed to be addictive to young users.
And Piers John Ruich has more.
California's Deputy Attorney General Megan O'Neill gave opening statements for the states,
and she argued that Metta's business model is the problem, and she summed it up in four words, hook, hold.
Harvest and hide.
So the model was to hook teens to hold their attention, to harvest their data,
and then to hide the truth from the public about the risks that they face while being on the platforms.
NPRS John Riewicz reporting.
The long primary season is nearing an end in Alaska.
Results are still being counted in the key Senate race, but former Congresswoman Mary Peltola
and incumbent Republican Senator Dan Sullivan both advanced to the November ballot.
In Florida, Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz won her redistricted
race for a seat that had long been held by a black representative.
And it was a mixed bag for progressives, as many lost their House primaries.
But in the U.S.
Senate race, progressive state lawmaker Angie Nixon easily won.
Florida voters also picked their Republican and Democratic nominees in the governor's race,
as Douglas Soule from member station WUSF reports.
