Fake-News Cash Cover-Up – Will Zuck-Wit Fire Clown Milner?
Just got home a while back, earlier than expected, and had a visitor to pay attention to, but then I watched BBC – it was surprisingly interesting, a programme on Facebook!

Much ado about ‘fake-news,’ as if the BBC doesn’t do its share thereof, but WHAT a dork Facebook put on to defend itself.

Simon Milner is HOPELESS!
Asked again and again to reveal how much money FB makes from Fake-News, all the clown could do was cower with a scowl behind his mantra –
‘We take our responsibilities very seriously.’
The amount was ‘negligible!’
Well, hell, if it’s that small, why can’t he give us a ball-park figure?
A million? Two Million? TEN million?
Or thirty bob? (That’s one pound fifty pence in good old pre-metric Sterling!)
Couldn’t?
OR WOULDN’T?
Does he truly not know or is he lying in his gritted teeth?
Again, Milner was asked about removing pictures, as Facebook did when the picture concerned was that famous one of the naked Vietnamese girl running screaming along a road.
========
We wrote about her a couple of years ago.
Always Learning Something New! That Little Vietnam GirlChose Freedom!
FB’s geekstapo jerks were so stupid that they were unaware of its iconic status…
…and had to restore it after more intelligent people pointed out their startling ineptitude.
All done quite fast – so how come other pictures…some quite outrageous, some fake, some defamatory…get left there for ages?
Enter the clown, again.
Milner resumed his previous droning mantra.
‘We take our responsibilities very seriously.’
NO WAY he could explain the different level of response.
Nobody I know likes Mark Zuckerberg, Obama’s ideological catamite…

I watched that too, Ross and I agree with you one hundred and fifty percent!
Milner is a grim-looking lad, not anyone I’d send out to represent my business.
He should have been prepared for the questions he must have known he would be asked.
Since we have to assume he would not be running Zuckerman’s British branch if he didn’t have some brains, then it is fair to deduce that he knew he’d be asked about the amount of money they rake in for their fake news.
Facebook must have an army of accountants who could have provided him with the exact totals.
Final logical deduction for us simple souls = he knows to the penny what that sum is and was just stone-walling the interviewer,
I wouldn’t trust him if he was offering second-hand goods in a flea market discount sale.

I seldom agree with everything you say in your blog but you have done well with this.
It’s reprehensible of Milner to hide the millions Zuckenberg earns from the fake news he lets onto Facebook.
Your description of the exchange is accurate. I saw it too, that BBC interviewer trying hard to get answers out of Milner and Milner brazening it out, almost mocking the interviewer with those constant obstructive repeats.
Facebook should be shut down!
