Ari Melber: Facebook Doesn’t Care If It Posts Russian Propaganda ‘As Long As You Keep Clicking’

Ari Melber: Facebook Doesn’t Care If It Posts Propaganda ‘As Long As You Keep Clicking’ (Mediaite)

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has been a regular target for MSNBC’s Ari Melber. In October, The Beat host took on the Facebook creator for using hurricane-ravaged Puerto Rico as a prop to promote a new app. Then on Nov. 1, Melber called out Zuckerberg for ducking Congressional hearings on how Facebook was used by the Russians to interfere in the 2016 election.

Wednesday night, Melber blasted Zuckerberg once more. His charge this time? Facebook isn’t concerned about posting fake news. It is only concerned with the traffic.
