Watch: AOC Grill Zuckerberg Over Facebook Allowing Lies in Political Ads

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., questioned Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg about his company’s complex policies involving false information in political advertisements during a congressional hearing on Wednesday. Earlier this month, Facebook said it would allow politicians to run advertisements on its social networks even if they include false information, but this week, the company said that it would not allow anyone to run any content that could cause voter suppression. Ocasio-Cortez used her time during the hearing to emphasize the complexity and confusing nature of Facebook’s new policies.
