Mark Zuckerberg's nonanswer about his secret dinner with Trump perfectly illustrates why his views about political speech are under fire

  • Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has taken a firm stance on political speech with his company's policy to not fact-check political ads.
  • Zuckerberg argues that Facebook users and the general public "should be able to see for themselves what politicians are saying." Critics argue that Facebook is allowing lies in exchange for ad revenue.
  • But when Zuckerberg had a secret dinner with President Donald Trump in October, not only did Facebook (nor the White House) not disclose the dinner, but Zuckerberg argued the discussion was private. He told "CBS This Morning" in an interview that aired Monday that he wanted "to respect that it was a private dinner with private discussion."
  • If Zuckerberg cares about open political speech as much as he says he does, he should also consider that discussions between two of the world's most powerful people should be open as well.
