Dennis Quaid 'baffled' by Facebook explanation for throttling promotion of 'Reagan' biopic
Fox News
Actor Dennis Quad discussed Facebook's response after criticism it was throttling promotion of his new biopic about President Ronald Reagan.
The marketers said they were told by Facebook that the post "mentions politicians or is about sensitive issues that could influence public opinion, how people vote and may impact the outcome of an election or pending legislation." But, as Quaid pointed out to Fox News' Trace Gallagher, Reagan died in 2004 and certainly isn't eligible for another term in office. Gabriel Hays is an associate editor for Fox News Digital.
"It seems to be automated that way for some reason. No one's responsible for that," Quaid said. "This happened several times, actually, and we were suspended two days in a row … The last time I heard, Reagan hasn’t been on the ballot in 40 years and not only that, he’s not even eligible to run because he served two terms."
