OK, I’ve read written testimony for CEOs of Twitter, Facebook and Google. Most remarkable, as @zamaan_qureshi noted, Zuckerberg elects to not discuss Facebook’s moves or role around January 6th. This will prove to be a bad way to start to hearing; Google has an entire section. 
Zuckerberg spends a lot of time on fact-checking process. It’s too in the weeds for hearing but a reminder how Facebook gives Russia Today and other state actors the benefit of doubt over hundreds of legitimate local news organizations. digitalcontentnext.org/blog/2020/11/1…
Also BREAKING: Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg supports new regulations for platform liability, privacy, data portability, and elections. All of them!
As long as he gets to write them. Pretty please. 🤦🏽♀️

Link to hearing here (or use cspan here in States if watching Congress grill CEO of Google due to YouTube on YouTube is understandably awkward to you). energycommerce.house.gov/committee-acti…
Let’s not forget about this scorching letter sent by Committee Chair last month. First hearing of new Congress. If they don’t deliver then it sets the agenda back significantly. I expect fire. energycommerce.house.gov/newsroom/press…
ps I’ve got tens of thousands of news publishers globally who would take issue with this claim by Zuckerberg. (I’ll start a new thread for the hearing, can’t join until 12:45pm probably about when post-opening statements will end considering multiple committees).
