Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook's chief executive, testifies before a House committee in Washington on Wednesday, Oct. 23, 2019.A Facebook Inc employee who criticized Chief Executive Mark Zuckerberg’s decision not to take action against inflammatory posts by U.S. President Donald Trump this month said on Friday that the social media company had fired him.
Dozens of employees, including Dail, abandoned their desks and tweeted objections to Zuckerberg’s handling of Trump’s posts. Trump’s posts included the racially charged phrase “when the looting starts, the shooting starts” in reference to protests against racism and police brutality held after the May 25 killing of George Floyd, a black man who died in police custody in Minneapolis.Twitter affixed a warning label to the same post, saying it glorified violence.
globebusiness What action are they supposed to take on 'unsubstantiated' posts?
globebusiness Ok.
globebusiness Facebook is FULL of know-it -all liberals who constantly spout negative and twisted lies about the right and certainly about Trump. The whole thing is hugely IRONIC to me. Trump clarified right after that the text didn’t mean what it seemed. He wasn’t insighting violence. Wake up
globebusiness Good for Facebook. They just went up a notch in my book. Never try to appease the mob.
globebusiness Unfortunately, if Facebook does nothing Trump and his supporters can make things very uncomfortable as has been proven with other companies that angered the irrational president. Hopefully, Trump may not be re-elected but there is a good chance that might get a second term......
globebusiness Beginning of the end of Facebook.
globebusiness Asshole
globebusiness suckerberg
globebusiness Facebook may have some insight into the future and is hedging it’s bets. I like them more
BecauseIDied globebusiness The board needs to remove that dweeb.

globebusiness LoL.. 99% of ish on FB is unsubstantiated. Good he was let go for being so biased and protesting unnecessarily.
