The shocking revelations:

1. Facebook promotes popular information, as opposed to true information.
2. Instagram makes teenaged girls feel bad about themselves, according to a survey of teenaged girls.
3. Politicians lie on Facebook.

I’m not seeing how Facebook is worse than many other established forms of media in these regards.

I see newspapers with obviously fake headlines every time I wait in line at Safeway. I also see magazines about beautiful celebrities and their perfect lives. Should I be outraged about Albertsons too?

What am I missing here?
