Mark Zuckerberg urged his employees not to apologize for Facebook’s ills as staffers called lawmakers in Washington, DC, in an effort to discredit whistleblower Frances Haugen, the Wall Street Journal reported Wednesday.
In an effort to stop Democrats and Republicans from uniting in opposition to Facebook, which recently changed its name to Meta, the company’s Washington team reached out to Republicans and claimed that Haugen was a Democratic activist who wanted to boost President Biden’s party, according to the Journal.
