However, NY Times claims that this report actually never published, and it affected Facebook poorly.
According to NY Times’ report, Facebook’s most viewed link in Q1 2021 had a headline that could promote COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy. It has been an issue on social media recently. The headline read, “A ‘healthy’ doctor died two weeks after getting a COVID-19 vaccine; CDC is investigating why”.
The South Florida Sun-Sentinel published the article.
According to internal emails obtained by NY Times, Facebook was working to release this report, but Facebook’s CMO and VP of analytics Alex Schultz debated. Moreover, he said whether it could cause problems in terms of public relations and decided not to share the report.
Facebook spokesman Andy Stone said in a statement:
“We considered making the report public earlier but since we knew the attention it would garner, exactly as we saw this week, there were fixes to the system we wanted to make.”
