Mark Zuckerberg has admitted that the Harris-Biden administration pressured him to censor Americans on Facebook, including the Hunter Biden laptop story and other politically incorrect viewpoints. He regrets not being more outspoken about this. Today’s show breaks it down.
According to Fox News:
Zuckerberg made the admission in a letter to House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, more than a year after providing the committee with thousands of documents as part of its investigation into content moderation on online platforms.
"There’s a lot of talk right now around how the U.S. government interacts with companies like Meta, and I want to be clear about our position," Zuckerberg wrote. "Our platforms are for everyone – we’re about promoting speech and helping people connect in a safe and secure way. As part of this, we regularly hear from governments around the world and others with various concerns around public discourse and public safety."
This included censoring satirical content that made fun of the left.
He told Jordan that in 2021, "senior officials" from the Biden administration and White House "repeatedly pressured our teams for months to censor certain COVID-19 content, including humor and satire."
“We have been fighting this fight for a very long time,” Gerald A said.
"Ultimately, it was our decision whether or not to take content down, and we own our decisions, including COVID-19-related changes we made to our enforcement in the wake of this pressure," Zuckerberg wrote. "I believe the government pressure was wrong, and I regret that we were not more outspoken about it.
"I also think we made some choices that, with the benefit of hindsight and new information, we wouldn’t make today," he added. "Like I said to our teams at the time, I feel strongly that we should not compromise our content standards to pressure from any Administration in either direction – and we’re ready to push back if something like this happens."
The show went from having the largest election livestream ever, to having the largest election livestream off of YouTube.
"We want to blow the doors off legacy media," Gerald said. "They have proved that they are not worth your trust.”
Why do you think Zuckerberg is coming clean now?
“Is it genuine? Is it getting ahead of something? Is it a change of heart?” Gerald said. “He may not be a Conservative but [he may want] to let this play out [and he may think] it’s more important to have free speech than for him to determine what type of speech people should hear.”
He also might think Trump will win in November and wants to keep Section 230 protections.
“It could be self-serving,” Gerald said. “I hope there is at least a sliver of goodness in it.”
