Zuckerberg admits censoring ‘Hunter Biden Laptop’ story for a week
Mark Zuckerberg has admitted that Facebook algorithmically censored the ‘Hunter Biden laptop’ story for a week.
Zuckerberg admitted it on ‘The Joe Rogan Experience’ podcast. Mark said that he did so because of a general request from the FBI to restrict election misinformation.
During the podcast, Joe asked Zuckerberg how Facebook handles controversial issues…like the Hunter Biden story and whether it was censored.
In response, Zuckerberg said, “So we took a different path than Twitter. I mean, basically, the background here is the FBI basically came to us…some folks on our team. They were like, Hey, just so you know…you should be high alert. We thought there was a lot of Russian propaganda in the 2016 election, we have it on notice.
