What will Facebook, Google and Twitter do about Russia?

from Too Embarrassed to Ask · host Recode

Tony Romm, Recode's senior policy and politics editor, returns to the show to talk with Kara Swisher and Lauren Goode about Russian agents' use of social media to meddle in the 2016 U.S. elections and what happens next. He previews next week's open hearings in which members of the U.S. Congress' House and Senate Intelligence Committees will grill representatives of Facebook, Twitter and Google about what they knew then and what they know now. Romm explains why regulating speech and advertising online is so difficult and answers your questions about fake news, bots and whether we should instead be focusing on education and personal responsibility.
