Civil rights activist Reverend Al Sharpton takes Facebook ad concerns to Mark Zuckerberg's home by eculliford
SAN FRANCISCO - Civil rights activist Reverend Al Sharpton said he had a “no-holds-barred meeting” with Mark Zuckerberg at the Facebook Inc CEO’s home on Monday over the company’s decision not to fact-check ads and other content from politicians.
“We told him that we feel that the exemption for politicians could be used to suppress voting, give wrong messaging and could suppress census taking,” Sharpton told Reuters in a phone interview on Monday after the meeting. Ahead of the U.S. presidential election in November 2020, Facebook’s policy has also been slammed by Democratic candidates and was recently criticized by some of its employees in an internal letter.
“They discussed a range of important issues and we look forward to continuing these conversations,” the statement said.
