Meta set to make decision on Trump’s return to Facebook – FT
Jan 1 (Reuters) – Facebook owner Meta Inc is
preparing to announce whether it will allow former U.S.
President Donald Trump back on to Facebook and Instagram, the
Financial Times reported on Sunday.
The social media giant had previously said it will decide by
Jan 7 whether to allow the former president to return. However,
that decision is now expected to be announced later in the
month, the newspaper said, citing a person familiar with the
matter.
Meta has set up a working group to focus on the matter,
according to people with knowledge of its operations, the report
said, adding that the group includes staffers from the public
policy and communications teams, as well as from the content
policy team.
Meta did not immediately respond to a request by Reuters for
comment.
