Facebook’s claim to support free speech ‘does not ring true’

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has come under fire from Democrats for refusing to "fact check" political advertising on his website. House Financial Services Chairwoman Maxine Waters said Mr Zuckerberg was profiting from false advertising. “Your claim to promote freedom of speech does not ring true,” she said. Mr Zuckerberg said "this really is not about money" and "I believe in giving people a voice". "I believe that ads can be an important part of voice," he said.
