Page 4 - Spouting Off News Today

Often publish information that is purposefully wrong, and facebook has sometimes taken action to essentially decelerate that content. to push it down in the news feed. to make sure that fewer people see it. i think that is a step towards eth ethics. but the fundamental problem with facebook is that it has designed something that is unfixable. the atlantic magazine has a team of fact checkers in order to check information for a magazine that comes out ten times a year. facebook is 2 billion peopl...

Freedom of speech, what is an actual threat, and what is just someone spouting off, and when they should react to something on social media? >> sure. compelling question, poppy. and ive got to tell you, being a former cop, i understand the visceral pain you feel when someone has taken one of your own and just walking around the newsroom here today and seeing some of your colleagues, i get it. its a palpable, visceral sense of loss. i was very strengthened last night to see the chief from the ann...

Implications where our allies could be alerted, that it would be narrowly tailored to achieve an objective. this is spouting off, has huge consequences. now it remains to be seen whether its actually going to happen. weve seen this president before say things in an effort to z-brakt from another issue but it doesnt get operationalized. well have to wait and see. this isnt how you make good public policy. >> this morning hes writing about the possibility that he could offer deals to canada and me...

Think its -- the only war worse than one thats intended is one thats unintended. this is not a game. this is not about can i puff my chest out bigger than your chest. its not presidential. >> would part of president trumps motivation here, kevin, perhaps be to try and use heated rhetoric to drive kim to the negotiating table with south korea? >> i dont know if its that intentional and i would take joe bidens own legendary advice to never question the motivation of your political opponents or to ...

Prospeks. i think i contributes to the creation of alternative reality media but the real thing what we dont do, we did not push back hard enough against the crackpots, against the folks who later became the alt right. back in the 1960s, william f. buckley drew a line and exited the john burch society because he wasnt a rhino, but he said this is a healthy intellectually honest movement. and we did not do that. we dont have the gate keepers and we didnt draw a line when donald trump began spouti...
