More reverberations are being felt with the drop of the Mark Zuckerberg/Facebook/Meta censorship regret letter. The letter revealed that former White House Assistant to the President and Director of Digital Strategy Rob Flaherty was the main person who pushed Zuck and other Big Tech platforms like Google to censor speech they didn’t agree with.
Now Flaherty is Kamala Harris’ Deputy Campaign Manager. What does that say about a potential Harris-Walz administration and how they will handle freedom of speech?
We already know the answer to that.
FLASHBACK: A current top campaign adviser for VP Kamala Harris was deeply involved in pushing Facebook to suppress “misinformation” in an effort to control the political narrative on COVID and other issues.
Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg admitted in a letter on Monday while expressing regret that his company, Facebook, was pressured by the Biden-Harris administration to censor Americans, particularly regarding COVID-19 content, bringing to the forefront actions taken by Harris’ deputy campaign manager Rob Flaherty as part of that pressure campaign.
Flaherty, who previously served as the White House director of digital strategy, helped lead the campaign to target alleged “misinformation” relating to the COVID-19 virus and its vaccinations, FOX Business previously reported.
Flaherty emailed Google team members in April 2021 to “connect […] about the work you’re doing to combat vaccine hesitancy, but also crack down on vaccine misinformation,” according to the documents.
