"However, Zuckerberg now admits that this was a grave mistake, as the story was not Russian disinformation, and the decision to demote it was influenced by government pressure." (Emphasis mine, TD)
"Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg is now trying to save himself from the controversial relationship between his company and the Biden-Harris regime.
In a letter addressed to House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, Zuckerberg throws the Biden-Harris regime under the bus.
He openly admitted that Meta, the parent company of Facebook, was subjected to relentless pressure by the Biden administration to censor content related to COVID-19, even when the content was satirical or humorous, and the infamous Hunter Biden laptop.

"In the letter, Zuckerberg detailed how senior officials from the Biden administration, including the White House, exerted consistent pressure on Meta’s teams to remove or suppress content that did not align with the regime’s narrative on COVID-19.
"This included posts that were clearly humorous or satirical.
"Zuckerberg’s letter also revealed another explosive detail: Meta’s decision to demote the New York Post’s bombshell story on the Biden family’s corruption in the lead-up to the 2020 election." . . .
UPDATE: Zuck: Yeah, Biden Pushed Us to Censor COVID Info – HotAir . . ."Take note of the way that Zuckerberg says that he regrets complying "with certain demands." Not all of the demands, mind you. Just certain ones. Would Mr. Zuckerberg care to be a bit more specific about the items falling into each bucket? I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for that to happen. He concludes by saying that things will be different going forward if the government makes similar requests.
"The government-requested censorship primarily falls into two categories here. One deals with supposed "misinformation" related to the government's response to the COVID pandemic. That was almost certainly the worst and potentially did the most damage. Anyone, including prominent virologists and other doctors who expressed the slightest skepticism over the early testing of the new mRNA vaccines, had their content "suppressed." . . .
