    The whole article reads like a puff piece for Zuckerberg/meta.

    They had him on the stand and these were the most interesting questions and answers? I feel like the WSJ is trying to convince me facebook is a good company trying its best and Zuckerberg is a reasonable empathetic person.

        I guess so, I expected a little more nuance to hide it better. but it was just blatant. like any child could figure it out

          Plenty of adults don't catch it either. You don't need to be blatant. Dress it up in neutral business language, keep the arguments one step removed from the conclusion, and anchor it in assumptions people already hold about markets and American institutions. Then it's nearly impossible to push back on without sounding like you're attacking the premises.

      That's what Meta paid for.

      That’s what the WSJ is there for

      You were expecting it to be fair and balanced? What's speaks volumes on murdoch is the WSJ will criticize trump in ways that are heresy on foxnews.
