Facebook Vice President of Ads Slams 'Main Media Narrative' of Russian Interference   Timothy Meads  Posted: Feb 17, 2018

Facebook’s Vice President of Ads, Rob Goldman, tweeted

last night his excitement in the charges brought forth by

the FBI against Russian actors who attempted to influence

the 2016 presidential election. Goldman also trashed the

media's coverage of Russian interference, asserting that

many are intentionally ignoring key facts in order to fit the

“main media narrative of Trump and the election.”

Yesterday, Special counsel Robert Mueller indicted 13

Russian nationals for “interfering in the U.S. election

process. In a detailed 37-page report, the FBI explains how

the defendants used false identities to stage political

protests, rallies, and recruit Americans in their conspiracy,”

as noted by Cortney. Deputy Attorney General Rod

Rosenstein emphasized that no American knew they were

“communicating with Russians.”

After those statements, Goldman took to Twitter to explain

Facebook’s role in the ongoing investigation. He pointed

out a glaring fact that most anti-Trumpers refuse to accept

- a majority of the Russian interference via Facebook

occurred after the election and swaying the outcome of the

presidential race was not the main goal.
