Season 13 Episode 1825 | 26m 45sVideo has Closed Captions

The menace that is Facebook; Taking a Selfie in the voting booth; Ending Senate Filibuster

The panelists examine some of the actions of Facebook in the past week that illustrate how the site removes content it doesn’t like and distributes to its users “news” stories that are utterly bogus. Then they discuss a New Hampshire law that makes it illegal to take a “selfie” in the voting booth that shows your completed ballot. Why would the state outlaw this behavior?
