Imagine how much more persuasive this comment would have been if you'd just taken a few more seconds add and hand full of links to provide evidence and context to your statement.
Merkel merely asked "are you working on this"?
Somehow Infowars turned this into the following headline:
"Mark Zuckerberg Caught on Hot Mic Saying Facebook Will Censor Anti-Migrant Posts"
Other, more credible outlets said that Merkel was "pressing" Zuckerberg. Like asking a question puts so much pressure on someone.
I for one would like to see headlines like this rewritten, "Saved you a click" style. People often read nothing more than the headline.
Words matter.
These days saying “I was given that information.” or “Actually, I’ve seen that information around." is all you need to convince half of Americans of whatever you want them to believe.
