Conservatives have long bemoaned the lack of viewpoint diversity in the discussion surrounding COVID-19, but for one Wall Street Journal columnist, the issue is personal.  Former New York Times reporter and author Alex Berenson claimed in a recent article for The Wall Street Journal that Amazon “has twice tried to suppress” several booklets that he wrote about COVID-19.…

Censoring the New York Post’s Biden bombshell was just the beginning. Now National File's Editor-in-Chief said Facebook is censoring its outlet.

Facebook fact-checker PolitiFact produced eight fact-checks that either used or relied on World Health Organization (WHO) numbers that have proven to be untrue. A new report from CNN shows that communist China was lying about how many of its citizens had contracted COVID-19 and how many deaths resulted from it.

Although the presidential election was more than a month ago now, Facebook is continuing to crack down on what it has decided is misinformation about the election. A Facebook fact-checker marked an article that Congressman Jim Jordan (R-OH) posted on December 4 as “Partly False Information” for the apparent sin of calling the results of the 2020 election into question. 

Facebook has, once again, decided to step up its censorship game.

The social media platform has reportedly decided that it will remove what it deems to be “false claims” about the COVID-19 vaccine that could be available around the world fairly soon, according to Bloomberg News. 

Woke leftists will always make stupid statements. (Recall how David Letterman claimed the press “educates” and “informs” people.) It’s a fact of life. One can only hope that they're too dumb to understand what they are actually saying, or merely indulging in sarcasm.

Even The Washington Post has called out Facebook for its new racial double standards. Facebook “is overhauling its algorithms that detect hate speech and deprioritizing hateful comments against Whites, men and Americans,” The Washington Post reported on Thursday. This overhaul of Facebook’s moderation projects is “known as the WoW Project,” according to internal documents…

Facebook’s new censorship process has taken off, and the platform’s Oversight Board has released the first six cases it plans to review. The Facebook Oversight Board (The Board) does have a period for public comment for the posts under review, but it does not make the actual posts or appeals publicly available. It only describes the posts. The Board is automatically restricting the information…

MRC President Brent Bozell on Wednesday sent a letter to several House Committees calling for Congress to rein in Facebook after the company’s post-election attempts to suppress what its two billion users can and cannot see. According to Bozell, “Such manipulation of Facebook’s algorithm, especially at such a precarious time in our country, is wholly unacceptable. Such manipulations are…

A straightforward report from Not the Bee, covering Johns Hopkins University’s (JHU) deletion and retraction of a student article covering a professor’s analysis that challenged the lethality of COVID-19, was fact-checked. Facebook’s left-wing fact-checkers jumped at the opportunity to call the article untrue and pile on doubt concerning the piece once it was posted to the platform.…

Last week, NewsBusters reported on a new poll showing that, at the time they cast their ballot, many Biden voters were unaware of important news stories involving either their candidate or President Trump. A deeper dive into the data shows that the problem was especially acute among those Biden voters who said they typically depended on social media for their election news.

Facebook’s latest faulty “fact check” shows how little regard the company has for facts or experts. Facebook added a USA Today “fact check” to a post of a Just Facts…

Facebook used its power to modify user news feeds to suppress what it called “election misinformation.” This new policy used a “secret internal ranking” after the Nov. 3 election to alter users’ feeds on the platform. The company altered its users’ newsfeeds to prioritize “mainstream publishers” like CNN, The New York Times and NPR, according to The Times. 

It appears that Facebook is willing to do whatever it can to get on former Vice President Joe Biden’s good side. Facebook is reportedly planning to promote the COVID-19 vaccine and the Paris climate agreement in order to “charm” Biden, the Financial Times reported.
