The Politics of Facebook and Google
Nellie Bailey and Glen Ford
28 Nov 2017
🖨️ Print Article

Julianne Tveten, author of an In These Times article titled “How the Fake News Scare is Marginalizing the Left,” said radicals should not expect to get fair access to Google and Facebook audiences. “Tech companies have their own politics, and those political agendas seep through to the news that they choose to display” on their pages. Tveten covers the intersection of technology and socio-economic issues.
