people started to form facebook - facebook knew that day? people started to form facebook groups| started to form facebook groups called stop the steal where they were telling americans the election had been stolen through donald trump. facebook watch from their offices as those groups... so they knew that this momentum had real power, and in the months leading up to january the 6th, they watched as that movement became more and more extreme. the day before the riots happen, journalist including myself send them e—mails with photographs of assault rifles posted to facebook pages, and sent asking if they would take those group down. what is your plan here? that's partly what we wanted to document, what was their plan? i think people reading the book will be shocked to find there was no plan. shocked to find there was no lan. ., plan. you right in the book that executives _ plan. you right in the book that executives considered getting mark zuckerberg to get in touch with donald trump, but they didn't. why not? thea;r in touch with donald tr

i wonder what facebook makes of you. have they been in touch with you directly about what they think of the book? in the weeks leading up to the publication of the book, facebook was in touch with us multiple times a day. there were days where it was dozens of times a day. they made it very clear that they objected to many things in the book, which was interesting because we had gone through a four—month fact checking process with them in which we had gone over every detail and every scene and really given them every chance to respond. but it was only when the book was actually printed and about to hit the shelves that they seemed to sort of realise that this was going to be hitting the public soon. and then, it was going to, i think, raise a lot of concerns about the way the company has been run. we'll hear more about that later. celia kong, the cover of your book, actually, has a list of apologies from facebook, things like, "we never meant to upset you, we need to do better." what is it they're apologising for? they

facebook has this narrative. in statements, a lot of the people who spoke to us were disgruntled or mad. they say it's not true. many of the people are there still. the majority of the people are still there and want to see change. they're speaking to us not because they're angry or they feel like they've been demoted or anything. it's because they feel like that's, by speaking to us, it's the only way the curtain can be pulled back behind a company that is so incredibly powerful. a ubiquitous platform that affects fans around the world, as well as governments and so many countries, 3.4 billion across all of its apps. that includes whatsapp and instagram. they want to make sure that this tool is used in a way that's healthy and safe for people around the world in democracy. sheera, ijust want to pick up on one of your book's examples. you talk about the storming of the capitol. talk about what facebook knew that day? people started to form facebook groups called stop the steal where they were telling americans th

we will hear from facebook. this hearing was made possible through a cross partisan group of organizations including freedom house, the national center for civil and human rights, the george w. bush institute. for we begin, a word from our cohost, the president of freedom house. >> i'm the president of freedom house. on behalf of freedom house and our event cohost, the national center for civil and human rights, issue one in the george w. bush institute, i would like to welcome you to our event series, reimagining american democracy. we launched a series a few months ago in order to help address a critical challenge facing the u.s. today. the health of its democracy. this is our third episode. today, we are looking for solutions to an issue central to the work we do at freedom house. how do you prevent disinformation from destroying democracy while protecting free speech online? in the digital age, during a global pandemic, at a time when political polarization is at an all-time high, this is no easy task. our s

amazon, apple, google, facebook? elizabeth: yeah, right now you've got the ftc doing facebook and you've got the department of justice doing google, and you've got a whole bunch of state attorney generals, republicans and democrats, joining in on those. they kind of center on different things, but a lot of it -- there's been a big house report that lumps in some of these things last year. one of the things they say is that google has a monopoly on search. they say google also has a monopoly on ad sales. they say facebook has a monopoly on social media. i think that a lot of these are not very well supported propositions, too, because if you look at facebook, millions of people are leaving facebook right now, like all the time. you can go to twitter. you can go to youtube. you can go to read it. you can go to new ones rising up, tiktok. you wouldn't have seen the rise of new things like tiktok. when you talk about amazon, one of the big things against amazon, it's dominating the online retail commerce with third-party

but according to facebook's rules, he was wrong to do so. in the feedback session, the trainer offers this explanation. we can go in here and that is taking on the, on the nipple. that's exactly why i'm having so much trouble understanding you now to take picture of a photograph of a woman and you show. ready a tiny nipple. and so on one hand, because we have 100 percent uncovered label. on the other hand, you're almost full picture. and you don't do it because it doesn't look exactly what you have. you're going from what you would have to learn. i room applying facebook rules without questioning them is the number one rule principle that will be drilled into you all day every day has to be really along with the respective. and we just seem to like to do our job. sometimes we'll find them job because not my training program with the end goal of turning you into a machine. pedro work for 6 months as a content reviewer for facebook and accenture. he agreed to respond to our questions, but only if he remained anonymous. 2 years after leaving th

facebook. so the content was everywhere. the other thing that's come out in the months since is that parler had referred many example, dozens of examples of this violent and inciting content in the weeks leading up to january 6th. so the argument that we were somehow irresponsible with respect to this conthe end and that it had something to do with what happened on the 6th. that we somehow aided in it is disingenuous. i can understand back then maybe they believed that because of the trolls on twitter and that sort of thing. but it has come to light in the months since. >> how much content moderation do you do? >> the guidelines has to do with illegal speech, speech that's a rights violation. otherwise we have something called a trolling filter which will filter out what some people call hate speech, but what i have categorized i think more objectively, as attacks on the basis of race and sex and sexual orientation, et cetera. that trolling filter on the web and also on our android app is somet

he is a pre speech advocate. facebook whistleblower and co author of the book behind the mask of facebook. current settlement cross talk rules and effects. that means you can jump anytime you want. and i appreciate your both whistleblowers from some of the most tyrannical organizations that have ever existed on this planet. i feel very strongly about that, so i can ryan, i'd like you to give us a thumbnail sketch of your whistle blower experience at these tech corporations you per sac in san francisco. well, google was a really great company all the way up until 2016 when donald trump, when the election. and then they decided that they were going to go to a hard authoritarian company. and they changed all their policies and they started to classify things like big news with a program called machine learning fairness. they had all their evil plans on design documents inside the company and as a full time employee, i had access to these documents. i copied them ah, and realised that this was something that the public needed to know about because it really is going to be the end of democracy

people again we use that as example of facebook which would have a monopoly, but facebook and twitter are not doing anything to keep people away from parler for gap. people deciding to like being on these other sites better for whatever reason. maybe because they don't want to be in a conservative echo chamber. that's probably the biggest reason, people say we want to go to parler when we can talk amongst conservatives and to get there and there like saying the same thing, nobody to fight with. they don't like that, they want to come back to twitter where they can be in this rough and tumble of it. >> host: so elizabeth nolan brown, i'm asking you to think about this. what does the current social media world mean to some of the legacy publishers, the "new york times" or nbc news, cnn, c-span? does it reduce their significance, in your view? >> guest: yes and no. i mean, again like they were used to for many, many years being able to control the narrative around so many things because you couldn't just, your average person couldn't just go online and go on a rant about it or the averag

people use as an example of facebook or twitter having a monopoly but facebook and twitter are communicating, people decide they like being on other sites that are for whatever reason maybe because i don't want to actually be in a conservative backup chamber, i think that is a biggest reason, people say want to go to parler we can talk amongst conservatives and then they realize they are saying the same thing and nobody to fight with and then they don't like that and want to come back to twitter but i be in the rough and tumble of it. >> and asking you to think about this, what does the current social media world mean to some of the legacy publishers. the new york times or nbc news, cnn, c-span, does it reduce their significance in your field? >> yes and no. again, they were used to, for many years being able to control the narrative around so many things because you couldn't just go online and go on a rant about it. the block could have started a block ten or 20 years ago, you could write on a block but was harder to get a ton of audience when you write something good, you write it and put

facebook punched back this weekend saying that facebook is not responsible for the fact that biden was not able to reach the july 4th vaccination goal. joining us now is tia mitchell, washington correspondent, cnn political analysts and commentators. what a great crew we have here. beyond the heated rhetoric, what has the white house done when it comes to regulating facebook or regulating social media to take away false health information? >> it's a great place to start this because regardless of the president walking back these comments today or even the comment on friday, i was there when he said that they are killing people. that is really almost the exclamation point of what has been weeks of building tension between this administration and facebook. our reporting has shown that the administration in meetings with facebook officials, officials at facebook have tried to get some sort of data to try and find out just how much is what is facebook doing to push back on this misinformation, how far does the misinformation go as well. and they weren't able to get that data. and even in t

i cannot scale that, i work for facebook. okay, this is not allowed. it's completely like confidential. the work is that he's looking at the case code names, confidentiality clauses, and a complete ban on cell phones. facebook gives you the life of a secret agent for 800 years a month. and if you're the chevy type, the following argument should shut you up pretty quickly. like an agreement and you cannot that agreement because by law we can do what we can punish you by law with, you know, it's confidential or cleaning up social media is a bit like doing your family's dirty laundry. it has to be done, but nobody talks about why so careful? what does the job involved? we continue discreetly with great. why? the before becoming a moderator. greg, why has to follow a 3 week training program? moderating facebook's content does normally involve deleting violent videos or races, jokes. it's a lot more complicated. at the moment. the algorithms can't handle everything. every decision must be justified using very strict rules. this is what we learned during the

on this white house-facebook st larry: breaking news facebook releasing a statement on collusion withh the white house, we partnered with government experts and researchers to take aggressive action against misinformation against covid-19 publiccines to protect health so far we removed 81800 pieces of covid misinformation and counsel break these rules and more than 2 billion people to reliablenf information about covid-19 and covid vaccines across our apps, reliable, let's talk about that we have guy benson fox news contributor and host of the guy benson radio heard it what did you make of it? >> that is pr know we are actually good and warmer doing good things and crackdown on bad things, i think we agree we are against misinformation including covid and vaccines in any of the important subjects related to pandemic that killed millions of people, whatri worries me that you're the federal government of the white house, biden today the president accused facebook of killing people, that is a direct quote a very clear message to facebook, do what we want y youo do we think this is misinfo

we're flagging problematic posts for facebook. the federal government is now marking post that it deems problematic for facebook to take down its 5. this is for every one's good. they say one time thing to save lives. they say this is ministry of truth level of no fees and they're literally admitting to collude and with media to control the narrative. this is censorship. this is the union of corporate and state power. one of the classic hallmarks of fascism that they people who spend 5 years babbling about fascism support, probably didn't expect facebook to put up a fight. see facebook has been playing biden scape good game for, for much longer than biden has been president. and they're very good. the data shows that 85 percent of facebook uses in the us have been all want to be vaccinated against cobra. 19 these and other facts tell a very different story to the one promoted by the administration in recent days. as i said, these guys are my a screws that deflecting reflecting in dissipating blame. generally the only facts that ma

and i don't know how you think about facebook thinking about the metaverse, if there is a facebook metaverse, if it goes into an existing metaverse and creates, i don't know, facebook land where you can interact with friends on facebook, but in the metaverse and transact in the metaverse. how do you think about facebook's role? >> well, what they want to be -- and i'm going off some recent public comments from zuckerberg is they want to be a platform that other people can plug into. when you do that, you can make money a lot of different ways. it can be an advertising based model in these virtual worlds. you can have advertising models. you could have ways that you charge different developers to plug into the metaverse. you can have entertainment you can come out with different content within the metaverse effectively it is just a totally digitally immersive world. if you don't believe in it, just look at what's happening with roadblocks and the two hours plus of daily engagement from their users. this is just an extension of it. i still haven't answered your question, melissa, what is the i

one, facebook absolutely has the data. you know, these are -- the misinformation that you talked about up front, these kinds of sources, whether it's tucker carlson or alex jones or others or a broad array of people who create the misinformation, because remember, there's not people at facebook making the misinformation. there are other people who create it and then it gets distributed on facebook and it goes viral. so facebook absolutely has that data. and they look at it. but do they look at it the right way? do they look at it enough? are they investing in the teams as fully as they should and getting other partners to look at that data the way they should? i don't think so. >> "the new york times" reported this week on internal clashes. what they called data wars involving this tool called crowd tangle. what is going on with this tool, and why does it matter? >> crowd tangle is a really great tool that takes public content -- and it's important that people know these are public posts and public content and makes a set

facebook says hey, we're not responsible. the battle between big tech, covid misinformation, and two of the most powerful men in the world, next. owerful men in the world, next. there's an america we build and one we explore. one that's been paved and one that's forever wild. but freedom means you don't have to choose just one adventure. you get both. introducing the wildly civilized all-new 3-row jeep grand cherokee l age before beauty? why not both? visibly diminish wrinkled skin in... crepe corrector lotion... only from gold bond. wondering what actually goes into your multivitamin? at new chapter, its' innovation, organic ingredients, and fermentation. fermentation? yes. formulated to help you body really truly absorb the natural goodness. new chapter. wellness, well done.

facebook is big. when they launch a newsletter platform they can afford to undercut you on price and let writers charge and not take a cut. and meanwhile, as far as i can see, you don't have an app, right, to help do signups. you have to give apple a cut if you did that i mean, that's a lot of big powers to fight. isn't it >> look, there's no way to be a successful company without ruffling a few feathers and going rounds with the big companies that try to get in on it, too. we support writers, free to publish to start and when you really make money when writers make money the writers know what our incentive is right? incentive alignment isn't just between readers and writers. also the writers and substacks they know what we're doing, know we're here and can trust us when we say that we're in in support of writers do think facebook can say that. >> facebook is trying to say that, chris, and trying to align their incentives better as we talked about earlier with ron conway in the show facebook has grown

how does this episode between the white house and facebook compare to your reporting on facebook's handling of misinformation? >> listening to that statement just now by facebook, i was really struck by how similar it is to what we document in the book. which is that when facebook is in its own way attacked, when it has negative pr or articles it doesn't like, it likes to deflect attention. it's a pattern that we show again and again throughout this book. and that statement about how many people have seen positive information about vaccines or the pandemic is interesting, but it doesn't tell us how many people have seen misinformation. how many people have been exposed to those who are anti-vaccine. >> right. i also found the statement striking. it was very defensive in its tone about biden missing his goal and by the way, we don't know how much the goal was missed, frankly. we don't know how much of a role misinformation played in that. but why have facebook's efforts to curb the spread of domestic misinformation have been so successful to date? >> this statement comes after very, very fru

where facebook's trading at right now. >> facebook down about 3% after hours. google closed up 3%, strong earnings, strong guidance there. it's going to be compared. >> with the big swings relative toy expectations, these are small moves for the sftocks. >> that's a good point >> that's going to do it for us on "closing bell," thank you, scott wapner "fast money" coming up next. sales are down from last quarter but we are hoping things will pick up by q3. yeah...uh... doug? sorry about that. umm... what...its...um... you alright?

their response was a brief e mail that didn't once reference facebook. it did however, contain this phrase. the well being of our employees is our priority. to finish our tour of the internet, trash cleaners the invisible workforce behind your facebook or instagram feed. we had one last meeting, sarah roberts is the leading researcher specializing, and those who work as moderators. she is a key figure in this field. we met her at the university where she teaches in california. she presented us with an analysis of the rise and development of content moderation. over the past year, we are talking about a scope and a scale of magnitude that has not been seen before. billions of things shared per day on facebook. hundreds of hours of video uploaded to you tube per minute per day and so on. the response has continued to be, we'll put more content moderators on it, which means that, that it continues to exponentially grow. it has gone from a next to nothing kind of line item in the budget to being a massive, massive cost center. meaning it doesn't actually ret

and it became very clear only recently that this was facebook plan. so, looks in the states did not know this information at the time. the acquisition to are 1st looked at by the government, and in my view, they ought to be able to bring their claim to day and not be precluded by this doctrine says you wait too long and now you can to yeah, that's a good point as well. especially when you think about the fact that facebook wasn't quite advertising. now, whenever they were making these acquisitions. of course, now this information is finally coming to light. and you know, we've seen some movement on anti trust reform legislation in the house. and they include provisions that could force the breakup of companies like amazon and apple that use their market place to also sell their own products. is, is a case where the current anti trust laws need to be updated to include today's technology, or is the law clear, but it's just not being enforced by the government. the law is not so un clear the law is very, very pro defendant. the law says we just have to

there were stories in newspapers on all ideological leaning about facebook, twitter, particularly facebook, so the content was everywhere. the other thing that has come out in the month since, parler has referred to many of the examples, dozens of examples of this content in the weeks leading up to january 6, so the argument that we were somehow irresponsible with respect to this content and that it had something to do with the events of the six that we somehow aided and that was a disingenuous argument and people still hold it. i could understand if maybe they thought that and they were reading the trolls on twitter about us or something, but i think the record has shown since then that isn't a valid argument. host: what about guidelines for the parler user today and how much content moderation do you do? guest: so, the guidelines just have to do with illegal speech, speech that is a rights violation. otherwise, we have something called a trolling filter, which will filter out what some people call hate speech, but what i have categorized more objectively as an attack on the base of race,

how does the government and facebook, the facebook gods, determine what a misinformation is? >> precisely. ande i like the word colluding here because it fits. if the white house is colluding with facebook on what is right and wrong speech, per their definitions, then every news item be negative to the administration could also ultimately be censored or suppressed outside of cobra do. we saw jen psaki before and sher said the administration iseb simply, water, working with facebook to combat misinformation but who gets to define what misinformation is? the white house? so one has to believe that a facebook is not biased at thet serving up the pressure of the democratic party and of course, facebook is acting in good faith. you have to believe that. facebook has checked in the past in terms of having a good track record. yeah, no.if remember about a month ago if you posted anything in terms of did kobe to come from my lab and wuhan china comp that was suppressed and censored because it was a little hot out because it was deemed misinformation. many in the media, stood next to

all of them remain active on facebook despite some even being banned on other platforms, including facebook -- ones that facebook owns. >> peter: the surgeon general is getting involved. >> today i issued a surgeon general's advisory on the dangers of health misinformation. >> peter: republican senator tom cotton's problem is, quote: the white house wants to censor misinformation on facebook while president biden claims that voter i.d. laws are worse than jim crow. >> there is disinformation that is coming from bad actors. but what is also important to point out is that much of the misinformation that is circulating online is often coming from individuals who don't have bad intentions. >> peter: at this point there may only be one way to avoid having the white house call silicon valley about your facebook posts just don't post. >> one of the things we have said again, when it comes to misinformation, not sharing is caring unlike what many of our moms taught us earlier in life. [laughter] >> peter: this revelation or announcement that the biden administration, the federal government are goin

facebook seems to have sort of intentionally sat things out with facebook, they didn't want to pay up for content there in a big way. maybe they felt like they could get enough chewbacca moms for free, they didn't have to do it. and but now they want to come in with a billion dollars, but tied to engagement metrics that facebook has more control over i think don't creators want more control over their content, the ability to move it here and there to sort of own the audience and isn't this facebook once again not having a clear economic model that puts creators in the driver's seat. a billion dollars sounds like a lot. compared to what amazon is spending for mgm, what apple and others -- it is not that much. >> i wouldn't compare it to mgm. this is apples and bananas here they're trying to create clear guidelines for what you have to do to get a certain amount of compensation it is not going to be a clean revenue share the way it is on youtube. i think the reality is that creators want to go where the people are, they want to go where their fans are and they will be on multiple platfo

it's biden versus facebook. the president says the social media platform is killing people so what does facebook have to say for itself. >>> and historic protests in cuba. how should the united states stopped? i'll speak to bob rhodes, the former obama official who helped normalize relations with havana. good evening. i'm mehdi hasan. the fate of hundreds of thousand of people in this country could be decided by just two people that almost nobody has ever heard. oh, yeah, and that actually nobody elected. meet andrew hanan. he's flown under the radar as a federal judge on the texas-mexico border after his appointment by president george w. bush. though he's been one of the most partisan conservatives as "slate" magazine but he was catapulted to national attention when he claimed daca, the obama era program protecting undocumented kids brought to this country as kids as unlawful. it doesn't affect the 600,000 dreamers in the country but puts an immediate halt to accept new applicants to the program or grant the p

and what kind of responsibility facebook will need to take? i mean, they relied a lot on that oversight board to help them make that decision. again, have they learned any lessons here to apply in that case in the event we do see another donald trump candidacy? >> you know what was really interesting about that oversight, they kicked the can back to facebook. saying you can't expect us to make a call on this on whether or not we should -- donald trump -- you know, allow him back on or not. so facebook has to re-evaluate its policies on trump set to expire in two years. that's going to put him just on facebook in time for a 2022 run. with all of the elections around the world. the elections in a number of countries with where these sorts of policies that they decide about elected leaders is going to play a huge role. >> if i could just add -- >> go ahead. >> i would just say this is another example of a company that continues to just move forward very quickly. without a lot of safe guards in place. it really like they are in flight and building

they tried to warn facebook. they said, hey, we're seeing problems with misinformation issues with people and including leaders and government leaders. let's come up with a policy about this. and again throughout this book we show that facebook really waits until after the problem has already started to try to come up with the policies. it's very reactive rather than proactive. >> now that we have your audio. let me stick with you and get another question to you. particularly because i want to know about where the solution lies. jen psaki, the white house press secretary said during a briefing this week that 12 accounts on facebook are responsible for about two thirds of the vaccine misinformation on the platform. and if you're wondering who they are, we have a list. they come from a report called the disinformation doesn't. will call you the 12 are. so if you have any of these 12 in these facebook accounts of people you're following, maybe tonight's the night to do digital hygiene and consider whether you want t

the government is currently trying to rip facebook up and now facebook is saying, we want to be a bit bigger zuckerberg would also say in his view of a metaverse, it is not owned by one company a lot of companies participate in this. they would say we want to be one of money companies building the metaverse, not just one. >> again zuckerberg very excited talking about this i know you talked about this, as a kid, he said he has had his eye on this and thinking about it it was very telling how he said facebook was just getting started when smartphones were gaining popularity he would have liked to have been more involved there. this is just him getting ahead of what he thinks is the next biggest thing but also really control. apple and google has control of the app store, is he looks at controlling being the glue of the metaverse? >> i thinks that right he's totally fed up having to live on other people's platforms. apple has given facebook's no shortage of trouble. if he could own his own platform maybe with occulus >> when does that leave fortnite and roblox you have to be able to swi

. >> what is an ugly truth about facebook? >> in order to keep growing in the way that facebook has grown, people are going to continue to get hurt. >> reporter: they are award-winning investigative reporters for "the new york times". in their new book they tell the inside story of facebook between the 2016 and 2020 elections. >> we had over 400 people, mostly employees currently there or who have left, who have confided in us what they think are very, very troubling patterns within the company. >> reporter: they say most of their sources were anonymous because they feared retribution from facebook, and they say the founder, mark zuckerberg, believed in growth at any cost. take donald trump whose inflammatory speech and false claims violated facebook's guidelines but kept users engaged. >> trump had 30 million followers. he was driving people daily. >> reporter: so they say the company allowed him to remain, creating a no fact-checking for politicians policy because such posts were news worthy. zuckerberg placating the preside

it's one thing for, you know, the president to attack facebook and for facebook to fire back. we're still in the middle of a pandemic and we need everybody helping spread that information that we can get. what do you make of this back and forth? >> so right now the biden administration is racing to meet its vaccine goals and it's going to be hard. and they identify misinformation on the internet, on these platforms as a major problem. facebook presents data that actually shows one side of the story which is that they're presenting authentic information that promotes the vaccine. what they're not presenting and what's really frustrating the white house in my conversations with them, they're not presenting how many people actually view like and shared misinformation. and that's the thing that the white house really wants for facebook to focus on. so, yes, facebook gets some credit for actually promoting authentic content about the vaccine, but they are presenting -- not solving this misinformation problem. this is a flash point of years of harmful content on facebook that we sho

, a facebook spokes person. there have been 367 books published on facebook, each claiming noefld insight into how we operate, but it seems this one is not only a rehash of history, but relies on supplied by mostly. >> the first one was 367 books written on facebook. they have to shift the language. that is not true. if you count facebook for dummies. but really, a handful of facebook and the inner workings of the company. and they know our book is different. they are anonymous because they still work there, and facebook did not allow them to speak was. they had to speak to us anonymously. >> the book again is an ugly truth. inside facebook's battle for domination. thanks. we'll be right back. you've been taking mental health meds, and your mind is finally in a better place. except now you have uncontrollable body movements called tardive dyskinesia - td. and it can seem like that's all people see. some meds for mental health can cause abnormal dopamine signaling in the brain. while how it works is not fully und

i don't trust the company and thousands of people i know on facebook would like to leave that the facebook from never offered a very clear definition of what extremism is. i guess it's in the eye of the beholder. however, facebook has announced a partnership with an n g o based in chicago called life after hate. that is intended to help people escape the violence far right now there's all comes after months of pressure on facebook to crack down on certain viewpoints. you can take this content now you can reduce division. you can fix this, but you choose not to. you have the means, but time after time you are picking engagement and profit over the health and safety of your users, our nation, and our democracy. the dirty truth is that they are relying on algorithms to purposely promote conspiratorial divisive or extreme its contents so that they can take money more money and ed dollars. we can do this with you or without you. and we will not all users are supporting this new initiative, report your extremist friends and family base on your own, subjective definition, what could possibly go w
