The only thing that could’ve made AOC’s interrogation of Zuck better is if she (or someone else down the line) would’ve made a statement on how Zuck seemingly has no idea what’s going on in his own company, and that it sounds like things have gone out of control or grown too large to control, then asking if he feels that way. When he inevitably answers that he thinks it’s under control, ask him why he couldn’t answer basic questions about company policy and that there is seemingly no way to control a company that large. They need to set themselves up to break Facebook up into smaller regional companies and set some precedent to kill monopolies.

Very on-brand for Fox news to give off the Official State TV vibe of 'everything is fine, carry on' during a major political crisis.

No. Comments like that are what most reps do, and it never works out well. You've just given him a chance to filibuster the rest of her time. She does a good job precisely because she avoids that poo poo.

Zuck's new strategy of being The Dumbest Man Alive worked moderately well for him. this time he was only really bad, not catastrophically bad

She does a good job precisely because she avoids that poo poo. Exactly. Direct questions, ideally as close to yes/no as you can get. Any opportunity to obfuscate or filibuster should be avoided at all costs. Guy's not dumb. He just doesn't give a rat's rear end about people.

Which they're basically safe from for at least 18 months if not longer. It's not a good look, but it'll pass.

I think this is why most founders should not remain the CEO of their tech companies. maybe with the exception of Apple, tech geeks are poo poo at communications, and even Stebe had issues.

the only opening I saw in the AOC segment was "So you, personally, think lying is bad, but you, personally, are okay profiting of said lying?" she killed it 1000% though. Just give her a couple hours to interview Zuck.

Tom Steyer needs to stop wasting millions promoting himself and dump that money into ads that are full of lies about GOP members of congress. The whole situation would be cleaned up in a week.

Unfortunately that seems pretty unlikely since hes sold what little of his soul he has left to the GOP to be their propaganda joint, and any attempt by a democratic president to break up the company (assuming we get one of those again) will be blocked by the courts

Maybe AOC et al can achieve that.

The concern wouldn't be losing control of facebook, but bad things happening to facebook - such as antitrust enforcement that forced facebook to spin off every potential competitor it bought up

Because Fox, as TV people, know what optics are. Which means they knew how bad this could potentially end up looking. Especially if the idiots stood around for a bit with their thumbs up their butt then got rejected and the normal work continued delayed by only an hour or two. So they don't show the thing, at least not in real time, in order to avoid placing a narrative on their channel that a bunch of congressmen humiliated themselves. They'll probably bring it up later once they figure out how to spin it and get their stories straight, making sure not to mention how quickly testimony reopened as if nothing had happened.

The original Hill article makes it pretty clear he didn't think this was something out of Les Mis when he initially dragged it. Someone in the WH definitely gave him a call to let him know daddy doesn't appreciate independent thought.
