Facebook reportedly failed to investigate misinformation tactics from the right-wing Daily Wire over fears of conservative backlash

, it is nonetheless hugely popular on Facebook, outranking the New York Times and the Washington Post on engagement.

According to the Times, Facebook's security team found evidence The Daily Wire was at the center of coordinated messages and posts without disclosing its involvement. This is a tactic commonly associated with disinformation networks. While some members of Facebook's security team wanted greater scope to investigate such partisan US networks, Facebook's policy team is said to have discouraged an investigation of The Daily Wire on the grounds it could irk conservatives.

Facebook has indeed sought to mollify conservatives convinced that the major US giants, often run by apparently liberal-leaning CEOs and execs, show bias to right-wing viewpoints and publications.Facebook has downplayed any tension. Its head of cybersecurity, Nathaniel Gleicher, told the New York Times he did not recall tensions over The Daily Wire, adding that the investigation found the site did not meet the threshold for enforcement.
