  • Can't imagine being dumb enough to rely on FB for news, but still. Shame on Facebook.

    http://gizmodo.com/former-facebook-w...zmodo_facebook

    Facebook workers routinely suppressed news stories of interest to conservative readers from the social network’s influential “trending” news section, according to a former journalist who worked on the project. This individual says that workers prevented stories about the right-wing CPAC gathering, Mitt Romney, Rand Paul, and other conservative topics from appearing in the highly-influential section, even though they were organically trending among the site’s users.

      Apparently, they also artificially forced 'Black Lives Matter' content to trend on FB as well.

        I read that earlier today. I am not surprised and expected that they did such things. But having the story out there makes everything Zuckerberg claims Facebook is supposed to be even more annoying.

                Another time appropriate gem posted by my MIL's husband. Hard to argue the empirical evidence.

                      Haha. These are my favorite. Presented with the pretense of objectivity.

                        In the business we refer to that "as empirical evidence."

                          That's how I know it's fake. Muslims call him Allah.

                          "Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

                              You know it's objective because it clearly shows that all four religions have some poor people.

                                Here's another classic posted by an old ward member.

                                http://madworldnews.com/nra-know-orlando-shooting/

                                1. Yes he's American, but his parents...!

                                2. They kill homos in Afghanistan.

                                3. "The NRA and guns do not follow a specific ideology," but Muslims do!

                                4. Their holy books tells them to kill homos!!!!

                                5. Muhammad kills gays AND his followers after have kills gays.

                                6. The shooter was definitely Muslim.

                                7. And a registered democrat.

                                8. Muslims outside of the Middle East are also prone to violence.

                                9. The night club was a gun-free zone!

                                10. "History is repeating itself and the common denominator isn’t a gun. It’s Islam."

                                Those like three times! Just ignore all of the other 95% of times this doesn't match up.

                                JUST STOP BLAMING THE NRA!
