This is such a thorough and comprehensive takedown, I am impressed.
There’s nothing in the article but Meta PR! It’s not factual reporting, and Fox has done nothing to corroborate the claims and provide actual analysis.
Zuckerberg is vague about what he was asked to “censor” (humour and satire?) but also makes clear that Facebook rebuffed officials and all that happened was that those officials expressed frustration. What’s the actual allegation here? Zuck got hurt feelings?
Zuck refers to Facebook’s mission as “helping people connect in a safe and secure way” to try and downplay the Cambridge Analytics scandal the fact that they’re are an ad platform first and foremost. This is Meta prop.
Also, what’s the alternative being promoted? If responding to, debunking, and rebuking the lies of Trump/Vance is “pointing fingers” and adding to negative discourse, then are they suggesting to just shut up about it and let the lies go unchecked? How does that serve anyone’s interest?
Feels like normative bias and the naive belief that Trump can’t cause any real damage and everything will be fine in the end.
