Weird article. Gives the impression that a conservative operative sunk a perfectly reasonable initiative for political reasons, and yet has absolutely zero analysis of how the feature would have worked.
I also thought it was odd that the WSJ used this story, and the fact that he was present at Kavanaugh hearings, to label Joel Kaplan as the sole conservative on Facebook’s team. Seems like quite a presumption, though I have never heard this guy’s name before.
