In summer of 2021, the White House was mounting a nationwide push for Americans to get vaccinated for Covid-19.
Part of that push included a public and SECRET campaign to get Facebook to more aggressively police vaccine-related content, including TRUE information.

Jordan noted that Facebook knew it was removing “humorous or satirical content that suggests the vaccine isn’t safe,” as well as “true information about the side effects.”
What did the White House want removed?

Jordan also noted that Facebook employees were annoyed at being made to take down content they knew was accurate, describing the administration’s definition of misinformation as “completely unclear” and noting that the White House was using “untested assumptions” to demand censorship.
“It also just seems like when the vaccination campaign isn’t going as hoped, it’s convenient for them to blame us,” one employee noted.
Another agreed, responding “This seems like a political battle that’s not fully grounded in facts, and it’s frustrating.”
