- Sen. Ted Cruz accuses Wikipedia of left-wing bias in a letter to the Wikimedia Foundation.
- Wikimedia Foundation lawyer Jacob Rogers states Cruz's concerns are based on misunderstandings of how Wikipedia operates.
- Wikipedia content is created and edited by volunteers through a collaborative, consensus-driven process.
- The Wikimedia Foundation maintains a hands-off approach, allowing volunteer editors to determine editorial policies.
- Cruz's concerns about donor influence on content are dismissed as unfounded by Rogers, who notes most funding comes from small donations via website fundraisers.
