Facebook Needs to Empower Parents, Not Censor Political Speech – WSJ

Too bad the main concern of many politicians is prodding Facebook to censor misinformation. Ms. Haugen seems to agree, and it s notable that her appearance seems to have been midwifed by Bill Burton, a prominent Democratic communications executive. Facebook is facing a Big Tobacco moment, a moment of reckoning, said Connecticut Sen. Richard Blumenthal.

Democrats have seen that bludgeoning CEO Mark Zuckerberg and threatening the company with regulation has been working. Mr. Zuckerberg resisted censorship for some time, but in recent years Facebook has begun to add opinionated fact-checks or has censored stories that disagree with progressive orthodoxy on climate, Covid or other issues. Our op-eds have been targeted more than once.
