Mark Zuckerberg to meet with conservative media figureheads
CNN ^ | 5-15-16 | Brian Stelter

Posted on 05/15/2016 6:32:57 PM PDT by dynachrome

Mark Zuckerberg invited prominent conservative media figures, including Glenn Beck and Dana Perino, to a meeting at Facebook's headquarters this week. The meeting, scheduled for Wednesday, is aimed at addressing the alleged suppression of conservative news stories in Facebook's "trending" stories section. Along with Perino and Beck, other confirmed attendees include Arthur Brooks of the American Enterprise Institute, CNN conservative commentator SE Cupp, and Zac Moffatt, co-founder of tech firm Targeted Victory. Moffatt was previously Mitt Romney's digital director.

They shouldn’t bother. Not worth the effort.

It’s got some folks all stirred up with the idea that it’s some effective treason plot, though.

The only reliable conservatives whom I am aware of all post on Free Republic. That is not to say that everyone out here is conservative by my standards, but many if not most are.

They surely are not gathering on CNN.

Zuckerberg wants only one thing uber alles, even more than leftiness — and that is to sell page views to advertisers.

If Facebook had the readership of FR, the kind of articles he would pimp would be quite different from what he does today.

Controversy sells. However at some point, even he will probably discover that getting on the Trump train makes sense. Trump is the quintessential man who bites dogs.

You’re right, controversy sells. And sells like hot cakes with a bubble headed blond pushing it. I was impressed with Perino at first like I was with Beck. But not anymore.

There are two ways to milk the controversy cow, the side of the attacker or the side of the attackee.

Zuckerberg is not being savvy (in a Machiavellian sense) if he does not use both ways.

I listen to Patriot Radio and the only time I change the channel is when Beck is on. I hope Patriot dumps him.

Dana Perino. “Conservative.” Guffaw, guffaw...

Yup, Dana is a Bushie, and there never was a conservative Bush, nor a conservative Bushie.

And btw, that goes for Teddy boy, too...both he and his wife Heidi are Buhie's.

Glen Beck? Come on, he is about as conservative as his Mormon idol, Mittens.

Globalists all. Freak Traders. Interventionists. Destroyer's of the Middle Class, just like their Dim counterparts.

I listen to the only station here which is IHeart...and he is on at 7:00A.M. I have my radio programed to go off at 6:59A.M. and I don't turn it back on until 10 at night to catch ‘ground zero’ and Coast to Coast, if I stay awake that long...lol..

I wished they would just take him off the air, he is totally a whack job, they run him off FNC in that program, where did he get the money for this mess he's doing?

Sorry about the ‘downer debbi’ but I cannot stand him!!!

Mark Zuckerberg is a thief. He stole the Facebook idea from the guys who came up with the idea. He settled for several hundred million.
