Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Meta, revealed that Facebook killed Hunter Biden’s laptop story after it was “warned by the FBI” of “potential Russian misinformation operations.” He also admitted that Facebook “shouldn’t have degraded the story.”

Zuckerberg, in a letter addressed to Rep. Jim Jordan, the Chairman of House Judiciary Committee (R-OH), wrote that, after the FBI warned him about a “Russian disinformation campaign” against President Joe Biden and his family, Facebook then removed an article published by the New York Post.

Facebook sent the story about the “corruption accusations” against the Biden family to fact-checkers and “temporarily degraded” it.

Zuckerberg said, “It has since become clear that this reporting was not Russian misinformation and, in retrospect we should not have degraded the story.” We’ve changed policies and processes so that this won’t happen again. For example, we don’t temporarily degrade things in the U.S. whilst waiting for fact-checkers.

Zuckerberg’s admission follows Emma-Jo Morris, Breitbart News’ Political Editor who testified in front of the House Select Subcommittee for the Weaponization and the Federal Government before December 2019. This was long before Morris published an article about the laptop in October 2020.

Meta’s CEO said that the FBI “warned them” of a “Russian disinformation campaign” against the Biden Family. After reading an article in the New York Post about “corruption accusations” against the Biden Family, Meta “demoted” the company.

Zuckerberg wrote that “the FBI warned us of a possible Russian disinformation campaign about the Biden Family and Burisma leading up to the 2020 elections.” “That fall, after reading a New York Post article about corruption allegations against the family of then-Democratic Presidential nominee Joe Biden, we sent it to fact-checkers and temporarily demoted that story while we waited for a response.

Breitbart reported previously that “despite the FBI knowing about the laptop and communicating frequently with Twitter and Facebook officials prior to the 2020 election, Twitter and Facebook censored Morris’s first report on the laptop story and Americans who shared the story based on the assumption that it was Russian disinformation.”
