On Monday evening, Ken Paxton, the Attorney General, declared an investigation into potential fraudulent activities within Media Matters. This follows a recent controversy sparked by an exposé from the media monitoring group.

This led to an exodus of advertisor partnerships from X, a prominent social media platform previously known as Twitter. Prior to this announcement, Elon Musk, X's Chief Executive Officer had filed a lawsuit against Media Matters, bearing the banner of the Northern District Court of Texas.

The lawsuit asserted Media Matters' deliberate distortion of information with the intent of tarnishing the social media giant's standing. Paxton disclosed that his office would probe the accusations made against Media Matters in order to ascertain if the group had contravened Texas consumer protection laws guarding against fraudulent conduct.

The lawsuit was initiated by two of Paxton's former associates, namely Judd Stone, the ex-Solicitor General, and Christopher Hilton, once serving as Assistant Attorney General. The pair parted ways with the Texas Attorney General’s Office in the wake of successfully advocating for their previous superior in the midst of Paxton’s impeachment trial.
