    Facebook exec apologizes for censoring Diamond & Silk

    Facebook exec apologizes for censoring Diamond & Silk

    New York Post
    10 hours ago

    WASHINGTON – A Facebook executive publicly apologized Tuesday for mistreating Diamond and Silk, the pro-Trump social media personalities.

    “We badly mishandled our communications with them,” Monika Bickert, head of Global Policy Management at Facebook, said at the House Judiciary Committee.

    The comments came at a hearing on whether Facebook, Twitter and YouTube are censoring conservative voices on their platforms — a premise Democrats panned as an “imaginary narrative.”

    Diamond and Silk claimed their pro-Trump messages had been censored from the social media platform, sparking conservative outrage from GOP allies in Congress.

    Bickert told the committee Facebook has learned from the mistakes and value the perspective the duo Trump loyalists bring the platform.

    An executive from Twitter, Nick Pickles, also apologized to GOP Senate candidate Marsha Blackburn for not allowing her to promote the video, saying it “was a mistake.”

    The companies told Congress they’ve made changes to their platforms to ensure there is a free expression of diverse ideas and rejected any notion they are biased against conservative voices.

    “These claims are unfounded and false,” Pickles, senior strategist of public policy at Twitter, said of conservative bias charges.

    Then why are they apologizing now? Mark Zuckerberg lied to the committee when on his second day of testimony, he claimed that his company has communicated with Diamond & Silk and had fixed the problem. Even at a subsequent hearing where Dimaond & Silk testified, they claim they still had not heard from Facebook.

    They also apologized:

    They did do it, so it is another lie to claim that “These claims are unfounded and false,”!

    Diamond and Silk should sue them for discrimination.
