Trump says Meta has 'come a long way' after it ends fact-checking program

President-elect Trump on Tuesday said that social media giant Meta has progressed as a company after it announced that it would eliminate its fact-checking program.

“Honestly, I think they’ve come a long way — Meta, Facebook, I think they’ve come a long way,” he said, adding that he watched a Fox interview with Meta’s head of policy, Joel Kaplan, and he was “impressive.”

Trump then replied “probably” when asked if the move is CEO Mark Zuckerberg directly responding to threats the president-elect has made against him.
