Change in Facebook's Censorship Policies
Facebook has announced a reversal of its previous censorship policies, a significant shift from its recent actions that limited the reach of conservative media. In 2021, conservative accounts experienced a drastic decline in engagement, with one notable example being a 90% drop in impressions for a leading Facebook page. This change is being partly attributed to pressure from the Biden administration, which sought to reduce the dissemination of certain political content and favor legacy media. The latest changes are seen as a response to a broader cultural shift towards increased free expression on social media platforms.
