00:00Do you have an interest in social media?
00:02Not even a little bit. Look, I'm an investigative reporter.
00:05And that guy and this company are playing an unprecedented role in our lives.
00:10This is the journal's new Facebook detective.
00:14He's not looking for trouble. He's hunting for it.
00:17You can't use my name and this is all off the record.
00:19What would you like to talk about?
00:20I ran classifiers on political groups where 30% of content hits multiple risk factors.
00:24Hang on, I don't understand what you're saying.
00:25Aren't you a tech reporter?
00:27Ish.
00:28Ish?
00:30Connecting people, it's a virtuous mission.
00:32Because some people are awkward.
00:33They get to be their best self when they're alone at their keyboard.
00:37So what's the problem?
00:38Something changed.
00:39Talk through being asshole because I'm white.
00:41I wanted to find out who radicalized my friend.
00:44And?
00:45We did.
00:48Facebook wants you to stay on the site for as long as possible.

01:06I want proof.
01:07She's going to get sued into small pieces.

01:23He won't give me his name, but he works here.
01:25Did you know this was happening?
01:28How hard is it to get powerful people to change something they're doing?
01:31You have to cause pain.
01:33You have to make it hurt.
01:35Enough!
01:36People can post what they want.
01:38We're not the rest.
01:39We're the public square.
01:40Are you crazy?
01:40You're like a crossing guard standing in front of a school, but you're not doing anything with your arms.
01:44So the car's just plowing down the children.
01:50You know what you wrote in that girl's life?
01:52Well, she's going to be fine.
01:53No.
01:55She won't be.
01:55No.
