Sensational
July 2, 2019
The most despicable social networking site in the history of the Internet. He sold everyone out from the very beginning. He's been selling his user's data since the very beginning. He's lied at every opportunity. I trust nothing Facebook says... and I never will.

This is a well-researched and concise report updating readers on Facebook's banning of fake accounts in recent months. Very balanced and leans on the data, however it's worth noting that much of the data provided in the article comes directly from Facebook and cannot be verified.

An interesting summary of self-reported data from FB newsroom articles with related commentary providing additional color.

The article is reporting details from Facebook’s own reports as well as properly cited statements made by Mark Zuckerberg. The article adds context of current issues surrounding Facebook, including quotes from Chris Hughes, a co-founder. It would have been helpful for the article to include links to stories about Facebook’s issues that were mentioned, but they are easily verifiable by searching for other media reports.
