Hi, I'm Lizzie O'Leary, and if you're wondering why you're hearing my voice and not Mary Harris's,

it's because we're bringing you a new show.

It's called What Next, TBD, and it's part of the What Next family, focused on tech, power, and the future.

So you'll hear me every Friday morning in your What Next feed, and you'll still get regular What Next Monday through Thursday.

Plus, those great impeachment roundup shows are now on Friday afternoons. Hope you like it.

On Wednesday of this week, Mark Zuckerberg went up to Capitol Hill.

Thank you, Chairwoman Waters, a ranking member, McKenry, and members of the committee.

Thank you for the opportunity to testify today.

In theory, he was there to testify about Facebook's cryptocurrency Libra.

In practice, he was there to be a pinnata for members of Congress.

Mr. Zuckerberg, I want to get through a number of questions, diverse asset management, fair housing issues, diversity and inclusion in privacy and security.

In particular, lawmakers seem to want to focus on Facebook's policy of not fact-checking political ads.

You announced recently that the official policy of Facebook now allows politicians to pay to spread disinformation.

I'm in 2020 elections and in the future.

So I just want to know how far I can push this.

You plan on doing no fact-checking on political ads.

Chairwoman, our policy is that we do not fact-check politicians' speech.

And, Mr. Zuckerberg's last time in front of Congress was in the spring of 2018.

Yeah, L Eisenstadt remembers that day perfectly.

The last time he testified was the day they made the job offered me.

In fact, they actually called me with the final offer one minute after his testimony ended that day.

Yeah, L's background is fascinating. She's been the CIA officer, advised Vice President Biden on national security, done corporate responsibility for big companies.
