Zuckerberg Is Sorry for Censoring Facebook for the Biden/Harris Administration

He admitted that the Biden/Harris administration had asked his company to censor posts about the Hunter Biden laptop and Covid-19.

In a letter addressed to House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, Zuckerberg explained.

He told Jordan that in 2021, "senior officials" from the Biden administration and White House "repeatedly pressured our teams for months to censor certain COVID-19 content, including humor and satire."

When Facebook did not agree with the censorship, Zuckerberg said, the Biden administration expressed a lot of frustration.

"Ultimately, it was our decision whether or not to take content down, and we own our decisions, including COVID-19-related changes we made to our enforcement in the wake of this pressure," Zuckerberg wrote. "I believe the government pressure was wrong, and I regret that we were not more outspoken about it. (source)

But it wasn't only information about Covid that they covered up. Hunter Biden's laptop story could have changed the outcome of the last election, and mentions of this, too, were erased from Facebook and Instagram.

Zuckerberg also said that Facebook shouldn't have censored the NY Post's Hunter Biden laptop story – and said that the FBI had warned the platform "about a potential Russian disinformation operation about the Biden family and Burisma in the lead up to the 2020 election."

"That fall, when we saw a New York Post story reporting on corruption allegations involving then-Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden's family, we sent that story to fact-checkers for review and temporarily demoted it while waiting for a reply," reads the letter. "It's since been made clear that the reporting was not Russian disinformation, and in retrospect, we shouldn't have demoted the story." (source)
