As we told you yesterday, Facebook is under fire over a report alleging that editors at the social media company deliberately suppressed “trending” conservative topics in the news feed.
Well, with the pretty big news today that Donald Trump is “dead even” with Hillary Clinton in the key swing states of Pennsylvania, Florida and Ohio, former George W. Bush press secretary Ari Fleischer has a question for the Facebook news team:
I wonder if the Quinnipiac poll showing Trump even w Hillary in FL, OH and PA is trending on Facebook.
