Sen. Elizabeth Warren posted false advertisements to Facebook to see if she could prove to voters that the social media platform values profit over facts.
Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren posted false advertisements to Facebook on Saturday to see if she could prove to voters that the social media platform values profit over facts.
"You're probably shocked, and you might be thinking, 'how could this possibly be true?' Well, it's not," the ads say."But what Zuckerberg has done is given Donald Trump free reign to lie on his platform -- and then to pay Facebook gobs of money to push out their lies to American voters." Warren said her campaign intentionally made the ad to see if Facebook would approve it, and they quickly did. She said many of the ads Facebook approves are ones TV stations won't even air.
Zuckerberg said he would"go to the mat" and fight for his company against Warren's policy, according to audio leaked Oct. 1 from a July Q&A session with Facebook employees at company headquarters.
