Florence Pugh fires back at Meta over restricted post about Cornell assault lawsuit
Florence Pugh says nobody will silence her after Instagram limited her post about the Cornell fraternity lawsuit. She told Elle it only fuels her fire.

Florence Pugh is still angry at Meta. The "Little Women" star says she will not be muzzled after Instagram limited the reach of her post on the Cornell sexual assault lawsuit.
Pugh brought up the episode in a new Elle interview. "No one f***ing censors me. Don't even try. That's just going to add fuel to the fire," she told the magazine.
Pugh said she felt she had to speak because women matter to her. She believes accusations of sexual violence deserve to be taken seriously. She also gave credit to her father for teaching her to confront bullies and to stick up for people who lack a platform like hers.
What happened in September
Back in September Pugh called out Instagram after she found that her post had been limited. It was about a lawsuit that accuses seven members of a Cornell fraternity of gang rape.
Meta said at the time that the post was first flagged for sensitive content. The company said the restriction was removed once it took a closer look.
The Cornell case
The suit centers on an alleged 2024 incident on the Ithaca campus. A female student claims seven members of the Chi Phi fraternity drugged her before sexually assaulting her.
Pugh has no regrets about weighing in. Trying to shut her up, she says, just makes her louder.
