Expert: Does Facebook Make Us Moral People? Banning Franklin Graham? Does Facebook Have Too Much Power? "Has Facebook gotten to big? Almost seventy percent of Americans have a Facebook account. Of those three quarters visit the site daily. Almost half of Americans use Facebook as one of their sources of news. Facebook has become the largest hangout in America. In corporate terms they are close to a monopoly. At the very least they have become an important part of the information flow and an influencer of our society.
