Not all conservatives come at the run when thumb-sucking Zuckerberg decided to toot his whistle

Facebook’s sham ‘self investigation‘ into the social media giant’s alleged suppression of conservative news scheduled for tomorrow at Silicon Valley, had already come to a conclusion about who the culprits were ahead of the big get together.

“Several people close to the company, who also declined to speak on record, argued that if bias was being inserted into the trending section, it came from Facebook’s part-time news curators acting on their own.” (The Guardian, May 16, 2016)

That’s the ticket!

Libs think conservatives are idiots. Like how Josh Earnest advanced the premise that the transgender bathroom policy was NOT the regime forcing this down everyone’s throat.

No, they were just issuing guidance in response to the many serious inquiries they have received on this issue.

I’d like to see an SNL skit on who was asking about this and why.

“Which bathroom should I use? I’d better contact the White House...”

Or how many should I build into this school? Again, I guess I should contact the White House...

Gee it’s the smallest fry’s fault. What a surprise. I guess you can rigorously train them and sternly instruct them in the doctrine of objectivity, then provide comprehensive supervision, but those smallest fries simply cannot be controlled. Not my fault.

Interestingly, those pushing to reveal Facebook’s bias didn’t bring up the numerous times that conservative-leaning facebook pages or posts get round-filed for “violating community standards” while left-leaning but otherwise identical posts/pages stay live for months c.f. the page calling for Palin’s death.

“Several people close to the company, including former IRS official Lois Lerner, who also declined to speak on record, argued that if bias was being inserted into the trending section, it came from Facebook’s part-time ROGUE news curators acting on their own in the local office in Cincinnati.”

there fixed it
