Zuckerberg sounds like he's getting a little scared of the flack, talking about free speech as a good thing.
Interesting stat in the article:
"...A whopping 40 percent of the 250 top American public-sector decision-makers are Ivy League graduates, according to a National Journal survey. Only a quarter hold a graduate degree from a public university. <i.e. 35% come from other private universities or didn't graduate>
And boardroom members typically come from the elite ZIP codes of New York City, Washington, DC, Silicon Valley and their surrounding areas. Zuckerberg himself is an example of the problem: He grew up in the wealthy Westchester town of Dobbs Ferry and went to Harvard before dropping out to focus on Facebook.
That lack of representation from people who grew up in rural areas or Rust Belt cities — whose experiences include sitting in a pew on Sunday, getting a little dirt under their nails and owning a gun — has widened the cultural divide and led to our current polarized political discourse.
Why? Because almost everyone who decides what ad you see, or how your news is delivered or what behavior is acceptable on and off a sports field is typically made by someone unfamiliar with life in the part of America derisively nicknamed “flyover” country...."
