Dennis Quaid Accuses Facebook of Censorship

News summary

Actor Dennis Quaid has accused Facebook of censoring promotional content for his upcoming film 'Reagan,' set to release on August 30. Facebook initially restricted ads and suspended the movie’s official page, attributing the actions to erroneous automated systems that flagged content related to Ronald Reagan as political. Despite admitting the errors and lifting some restrictions, Quaid remains skeptical, suggesting deliberate censorship against conservative viewpoints, especially during an election year. Quaid's allegations are supported by Eric McClellan, the film's digital marketing director, who highlighted a specific incident where an ad featuring a Reagan quote was not allowed to be boosted. This controversy adds to ongoing concerns about Facebook's influence on political content and free speech. Newsweek and Breitbart have extensively reported on these claims, highlighting broader issues of potential bias on social media platforms.
