President Donald Trump has angrily complained this week about social media companies, repeatedly accusing them of censoring conservative voices and going as far as to sign an executive order Thursday seeking to limit their power.
But
data from Facebook, the world's largest social media company, pours
cold water on the assertion that conservative voices are being silenced.
In
fact, according to CrowdTangle, a data-analytics firm owned by
Facebook, content from conservative news organizations dominates
Facebook and often outperforms content from straightforward news
organizations.

Conservative voices are heard despite the efforts to silence them. That's the double-edged beauty of the social media network. Twitter can try to muzzle Trump but there's too many conservatives out there willing to push the message.
ReplyDeleteImage the situation just a couple of decades ago - four major TV networks, three of them liberal and the fourth, with less penetration into the national market. And at that time there was still a pretense of fairness by the broadcasters. Now imagine what it would be like today without social media - all the major networks except Fox peddling an anti-Trump message and without a pretense of fairness.
