This week, Karin interviews digital and social media expert Mat Muir about the raging debate over Facebook's political ads policy. This week, a group of Facebook employees published an open letter to Mark Zuckerberg calling on him to reverse his policy of allowing false information in political ads, and setting out some suggestions for how they could better manage political ads on the platform. We talk through each of their suggestions and explore the legal and technical mine field of political ads on social media, including Twitter's decision to terminate political advertising on the platform altogether.
In a fully packed news roundup this week, we also cover the House's vote to move forward on the impeachment inquiry, the upcoming local elections, and the court ruling ordering a new congressional map in North Carolina.
