BS.  &quot;Spam&quot; is advertising; news you don&#x27;t agree with is not.<p>Yes, if Facebook users shout about something loudly and it gets popular, FB has no right to squelch that just because they disagree with it.  That&#x27;s censorship.<p>If Democrat voters don&#x27;t like the Republican-aimed news, FB can and should make sure their news feeds are tailored for users so that people don&#x27;t see stuff from sources they think are junk and so their feeds are more tailored for them and their preferences.  I have no problem with that.  That&#x27;s how Google News works; I can tell it to not show me news from crappy sites like Breitbart or WND.  But it doesn&#x27;t censor those sources against my will; if for some crazy reason I really liked those site, I could tell GN to show them to me, and I can set my preference for those sites to a higher factor.  The whole key here is user choice: having some fedora-wearing hipster at Facebook telling me what I should and shouldn&#x27;t be reading is asinine and condescending.  Having the ability to configure my news feeds to show me what I want, and hide things I think are garbage, is absolutely correct however.
