Summary:

Regulating hate on Facebook is undoubtedly very difficult, and as its censorship of the Napalm Girl photo demonstrated, the platform is ill-equipped to distinguish between bile and commentary. But at this point, it doesn’t even appear to be trying. Mark Zuckerberg has proclaimed that fake news is not a problem on Facebook. He insists that it’s “crazy” to think fake news on Facebook influenced the election and sees no way or reason to stop its spread across the platform.
