By Kay C. James (President of The Heritage Foundation) ~ Facebook’s Oversight Board decided to uphold Facebook’s and Instagram’s suspension of former President Donald Trump from their platforms Wednesday.

By Corinne Weaver ~ Facebook is taking a contradictory stance: it supposedly is pro-free speech, but is banning political ads the week before the election.

By Corinne Weaver ~ Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg once said, “I don’t think it’s right for a private company to censor politicians or the news in a democracy.” The sentiment seemed to vanish after a slew of ad boycotts and hit pieces in the liberal media. On June 26, Zuckerberg outlined new policies in a […]
By Corinne Weaver ~ Facebook claims that it aims “to prevent potential offline harm that may be related to content on Facebook.” But it seems that it only takes aim at some, not all, of the offline harm on its site.

By Corinne Weaver ~ Facebook launched a new program to incentivize its users in America to vote in the 2020 election. It announced that the platform plans to help 4 million people go out and vote.

By Corinne Weaver ~ Facebook’s new Oversight Board promises to be committed to freedom of expression.

By Corinne Weaver ~ A co-chair of the Facebook Oversight Board admitted that conservatives had reason to believe that the Board was “loaded” with “people from the progressive side of the spectrum.” Four members of the Facebook Oversight Board answered some questions in an interview, hosted by the Aspen Institute.

By P.J. Gladnick ~ Washington Post media columnist Margaret Sullivan acknowledged Facebook has never three billion users, but she still wants it to have an “Executive Editor” to punish and censor the “misinformation” that is harming our democracy.

By Corinne Weaver ~ The liberal media met Facebook’s announcement of its first 20 members of its new Oversight Board with praise and applause.

By Corinne Weaver ~ Censorship on college campuses can be problematic, especially if those campuses are public institutions. “Restrictions on speech by public colleges and universities amount to government censorship, in violation of the Constitution,” wrote the American Civil Liberties Union.

By Jarrett Stepman ~ Facebook Chief Executive Mark Zuckerberg came to Capitol Hill last week for a House Financial Services Committee hearing where the primary focus was supposed to be to examine Facebook’s proposed cryptocurrency, Libra.

By Corinne Weaver ~ The intolerant left has a long list of things they consider unforgivable sins. One of them includes simply talking and dining with those on the right.

By Corinne Weaver ~ Fox News apparently does not meet the standards for Facebook’s idea of journalism.
