Cecile Richards was everything one would hope to see in a great leader. Her unwavering dedication to reproductive rights and women’s health has been an unrivaled inspiration to countless millions. This is a devastating loss. Keeping her loved ones in my thoughts today.

Fact-checking wasn’t “biased” against conservatives. Conservatives just shared more false content. If there’s a sportsball game and one team fouls four times as much, it’s not “biased” for the ref to call four times as many fouls against that team.

Meta is dropping fact-checking to avoid anti-conservative bias- but is there actually evidence of bias?
We this test empirically & find that conservatives

* BUT share more misinfo
So suspension isn't necessarily evidence of bias www.nature.com/articles/s41...
