Zuckerberg tells Rogan FBI warning prompted Biden laptop story censorship

Mark Zuckerberg revealed on the Joe Rogan podcast that Facebook’s decision to restrict sharing of a story about Joe Biden’s son during the 2020 election was based on FBI misinformation warnings. The New York Post alleged leaked emails from Hunter Biden’s laptop showed the then vice-president was helping his son’s business dealings in Ukraine, but Facebook later reversed course amid allegations of censorship. Zuckerberg acknowledged that there remained disagreement about the story and said he did not get into technology to judge such issues, expressing a desire for more collaborative decision-making at the company level.
