Here they come again, right on cue... FOX NEWS! WINGNUTS! BATSHIT CRAZY...!!! Soon we will get the "so what!, Isn't there anything mor eimportant to focus on!!! MOve ALONG!
Meanwhile the entire essence of the outrage is purposefully ignored and dissembled.
DID FB DO WHAT THEY TELL YOU THEY ARE DOING? That is the only question. What is the answer Steven?
This is what they SAID they did:
How does Facebook determine what topics are trending?
"Trending shows you topics that have recently become popular on Facebook. The topics you see are based on a number of factors including engagement, timeliness, Pages you've liked and your location."
https://www.facebook.com/help/737806312958641
HOWEVER - this is what the ACTUALLY did:
https://fbnewsroomus.files.wordpress.com/2016/05/full-trending-review-guidelines.pdf
Page 21 for "Injecting Topics"...
And now this here
"Its literally no accident that this issue comes up just before the Trump people will need social media support in the general election."
Hmmmm why would this be of concern to people who KNOW that FB itself has claimed to literralyinfluence elections, both in turnout and in FB Page fundraising?
Oh wait, let's look at internal FB "questions for Mark" for some guidance here:

Oh and how might Mark feel about Trump?

Springfield / Re: The Sad Saga of 439 East First Street
« Last post by mbwright on May 13, 2016, 09:10:12 AM »The problem with that scenario is that the demo guy (favored buddy) does not get work, and MCCD does not get a kick back (speculation) and an opportunity to pat themselves on the back. Had they spent $50K on stabilization/restoration, it would have added value to the house. Very sad that a HISTORIC neighborhood has ZERO PROTECTION, and ZERO consequences for those involved with all of these demos. It should be criminal, but I guess you can't charge MCCD with something that would change their way of doing things. Just imagine if this area was complete, like Savannah, Charleston, and others. It would be a greatly improved property tax generating area.

Carter would have had a hard time even finding 37 historic buildings in DT JAX to buy.
Brutal but totally justifiable statement to make on his part.
