Where Does Mark Zuckerberg Go For The Apology He’s Owed?

I come not to praise or defend Facebook for its handling of conservative content, but I think this needs to be noted for the record.

For the past two years, American media outlets from CNN to the New York Times have spent inordinate energy and resources tracking down people posting supposedly fake news on Facebook and blaming Mark Zuckerberg for the dissemination and spread of fake news in America.

But it turns out the real fake news were the poll driven stories and headlines trying to put focus on and shape the election. It turns out Facebook should not be labeling senior citizens’ Facebook posts as fake news, but should have labeled a whole lot of the mainstream media’s 2020 coverage as fake news.

In fact, I think Facebook should probably block the New York Times from ever sharing the New York Times/Sienna poll again or should at least label it as a possibly dubious, disreputable source.

After all, that’s what the New York Times would demand of Facebook if people were sharing bad, fake polls that got pretty much every single election wrong.

Not that Zuckerberg needs an apology, but considering we now know virtually every major 2020 setting story in the media was wrong, maybe they should shut the hell up about Facebook spreading fake news and just let people share their memes in peace.
