Oversight Board to Facebook: Nice Try
Manage episode 291897715 series 1714397
The question of Donald Trump’s banned account--to keep it blocked, or reinstate it--is one of the toughest that Facebook has ever faced. But the social network had a plan: punt the decision to its newly minted Oversight Board, a semi-independent “Supreme Court” tasked with making hard decisions about what content stays up, and what comes down.
Did that plan just backfire?
Guest: Kate Klonick, professor at St. John’s University School of Law
