Ep 502 | Facebook Whistleblower: Dem Operative or Hero? | Guest: Rachel Bovard Relatable with Allie Beth Stuckey
-
- News Commentary
Today we're discussing the Facebook whistleblower situation with journalist and senior director of policy for the Conservative Partnership Institute Rachel Bovard. Recently, former Facebook employee Frances Haugen shared at a Senate hearing that Facebook knows its platforms are harmful to teenagers, but the company doesn't care. However, conveniently for the Democrats, this whistleblower is suggesting that the solution is more government censorship. While this is definitely not the answer, the information she's made public should still be acted upon, and Rachel provides some free-market solutions to Facebook that don't restrict free speech.
