Sandberg has come under fire for Facebook’s handling of a rising tide of criticism, much of it related to the spread of disinformation across the social network. She initially denied knowing that the company had hired public relations firm Definers, which drew links between Soros and some of the company’s critics.

Sandberg later conceded that "some of their work was incorporated into materials presented to me and I received a small number of emails where Definers was referenced." Thursday’s statement draws a more direct link between the executive and Facebook’s response to Soros.
