I'm a little bit baffled by the way that this story is being covered, particularly when i saw "the new york times" report on it last night. what facebook is doing here is they're getting a lot of pressure for it from the biden campaign. they've gotten pressure from elizabeth warren's campaign. what they're doing here is totally in step with how every other media organization handles political advertising. you had to read the second to the last paragraph of that "the new york times" report, but what you would have found is that the ad has also appeared on twitter, it has also appeared on youtub...
