Mark Zuckerberg is criticising Twitter for fact-checking Donald Trump

Criticising Twitter for flagging tweets by US President Donald Trump, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has said that social media companies should not be the arbiter of truth.

US President Donald Trump on Wednesday threatened Twitter with “big action” for tagging two of his tweets on mail-in voting with a fact-checking warning label.

In an interview with Fox News, Zuckerberg called out his social media rival, saying Twitter should not be fact-checking Trump.

“I just believe strongly that Facebook shouldn’t be the arbiter of truth of everything that people say online,” he told the interviewer.
