Recently, a CNN reporter asked how Facebook could simultaneously promise to tackle fake news while also keeping conspiracy theory site InfoWars and its host Alex Jones, who called the Sandy Hook massacre an “elaborate hoax by the government,” on the platform. Facebook said InfoWars did not violate the rules that Facebook created, and utilized the classic “gotta hear both sides” defense. Facebook then doubled down on its response via Twitter.

InfoWars, which peddles weak and expensive vitamins, has over 900,000 followers on Facebook. How are we to deal with a multi-billion dollar corporation that is refusing to moderate bad-faith actors who are poisoning the political landscape with far-right conspiracy theories while gutting the business model of traditional journalism?
