Of Zuck and Trump, on Rising Up with Sonali / by Robert Smith

Just now, I was privileged enough to be interviewed by Sonali Kolhatkar for her great syndicated radio and TV show, Rising Up with Sonali. We talked about Mark Zuckerberg having called in the Ethics Panel Facebook established back in May 2020 to adjudicate the decision to indefinitely suspend one Donald J. Trump's FB account after the January 6 insurrection in Washington D.C. The Trump ban was certainly the right move, but it’s unclear that this move is towards the essential social media regulation that may eventually improve social discourse.

You can hear our conversation on KPFX (90.7 FM, Los Angeles) and various other radio stations today (Jan. 25, 2021), tomorrow on Free Speech TV.
