Mark Zuckerberg sought denial at a hearing of the House Financial Services Committee this week. Plus, for a problem Facebook wasn’t ready to solve, he wanted allies from the permission-seeking business world, such as banks and nonprofits. Stop us if you can, Mr. Zuckerberg might have told the host governments. “When we have had real journalism,” he thundered in his CJR piece, “we have seen crimes like Watergate exposed and confronted, leading to anti-corruption reforms. When we have lacked real journalism, we have seen crimes like mortgage fraud go unnoticed and unpunished.”This vacuous posturing happens to be wrong.
