Sen. Eric Schmitt, R-Mo., spoke to OutKick after sending a letter to Eventbrite CEO Julia Hartz over the platform's recent decision to pull a Gaines' speaking event from its website.
Eventbrite’s hypocrisy and woke political extremism were recently put on full display after the company prohibited OutKick’s Riley Gaines from promoting her speaking event about protecting women’s sports at University of California-Davis on Nov. 3. While the company claimed that Gaines’ event violated its terms of service, Eventbrite was allowing listings for pro-Hamas events. Sen. Eric Schmitt of Missouri isn’t letting this story simply float away into the news cycle.
think it’s important that if you’re going to be a business that sort of holds yourself out there as hosting events and letting people know what’s going on and then you’re going to cancel somebody because it violates your terms of service I think the public deserves to know what is that criteria,' Sen. Schmitt said.
On October 25, OutKick questioned how Eventbrite could prohibit Gaines from promoting her upcoming speech on its website while allowing other parties to list upcoming pro-Hamas rallies. OutKick contacted the Eventbrite public relations team as well as Julia Hartz for the answer. Neither responded to our inquiry. On October 26, Eventbrite removed the web pages OutKick cited showing the listings for pro-Hamas events.
Gaines, host of OutKick’s 'Gaines For Girls' podcast, spoke with Arnolt and put the aftermath of the situation into perspective. 'I haven’t heard anything from the CEO, the co-founder, nothing, other than the comment where he told myself and OutKick and the rest of our team to go f-ourselves,' Gaines explained.
