    While on the topic of his role in the upcoming movie, ‘The Social Reckoning,’ Bill Burr called the current state of social platforms “evil.” “It started off as fun and silly, and then it got monetized, and then it just got evil.” Interview: www.rollingstone.com/culture/cult...

    Aaron Sorkin said the “The Social Reckoning” “shouldn’t” be a political film. But he acknowledges it is one, probing Facebook’s role in the rise of extremism and division ahead of the 2020 election and Jan. 6. Read his Q&A with our Daniel Miller: politi.co/4yyJBXe

    The problem with calling the film "The Social Reckoning" is that, so far at least, Zuckerberg and his ilk have faced no real reckoning for the monster they unleashed upon the world.
