Mark Zuckerberg says White House ‘pressured’ Meta to ‘censor’ Covid-19 content

CNBC's Julia Boorstin joins 'Power Lunch' to report on Mark Zuckerberg's statement that the Biden administration “pressured” Facebook parent Meta to “censor” content related to Covid-19.

He also just said they pressured him to silence hunters laptop. Why was that part left

[bobearl]

So that means he committed perjury when he testified in front of Congress a couple of months ago

[Smasher-Devourer]

He just admitted what we knew all along, and the media lied to us about for 4 years.

[Wickedpissah]

Remember when even mentioning this topic on Facebook would get you blocked and your comments banned?

Stopped using social media during Covid and I never looked back

[thomasgraziano]

Zuckerberg needs to name names and follow the trail as high up the chain as it goes.

[BuildTheWall]

Why isn’t this being covered by ABC, NBC, CBS and CNN?

[richlopez]

We already knew that. At least he's finally admitting to it

[blainejohnson]

Anyone who violated the American constitution should be jailed.

[jimmyjack]

How about all the censorship here on YT?

[TrineDaely]

Considering the deliberate disinfo that was out there, Meta should have had the moral character to do it themselves, but of course they don't. More clicks = more money for them, putting their money above our lives.

[drewc]

it wasn't just covid, the hunter biden story, the cocaine story, etc etc

[steelhead]

Yeah and you left out how the FBI pressured them to not put out anything on Hunters laptop also. And you did too!

[mrfofff]

We all knew, now who's going to jail?

[Basketball-]

If he knows it’s wrong why he still blocks people when they bring their opinion about FJB and KH

[James-tc]

I was banned on FB and they shut my business FB page down. I’m now getting my lawyer involved now that I have proof.

[FullMetalNobody]

😆 "We believe they should take account of their actions".
As we call your kettle black. 🤦🏻 What a joke..

[notagain]

Everything that all the major network said wasn't happening.

[jonathanpeterson]

Oh now it's someone else's fault😂😂
Nobody wants you Mark, don't try to make yourself look like a victim. Are y'all serious?

[cryolith]

So it sounds like it went something like
WhiteHouse: Hey guys, maybe you should do something about the crazy sh*t people are posting
Meta: Nah bro
WhiteHouse: Ok Cool

Like, what was the "pressure"? No legal or financial ramifications to Meta at all. Not many details really...

[ryanschimming]

So most people who stay informed already knew/speculated this was the case. 1984 is unfolding before our eyes.
