'It Wasn't Genuine'

Robert and Rose Bronstein, grieving parents whose son died by suicide in 2022 after being cyberbullied, said the dramatic apology given by Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg during a Senate online child safety hearing on Wednesday was insincere, RadarOnline.com has learned. …

During an interview with CNN’s Poppy Harlow and Phil Mattingly on Thursday, Robert said Zuckerberg’s remarks did not feel like they were from the heart and only seemed to happen because Hawley “clearly shamed him into it.”

“It’s certainly not the apology that was appropriate. It wasn’t genuine,” he continued. “It was forced with TV cameras rolling.”

[Well, that’s another reason to criticize Hawley’s grandstanding. The Bronsteins have a case against the school that didn’t do anything after their son reported the bullying, but not against the platform or its creator/CEO. Would we blame the cellphone for such text messages? Of course not, and it’s unfair to blame the platform for the behavior of a handful of its customers. Worse than unfair, it accelerates the incentives to cooperate with censors inside and outside of governments for ‘safety.’ — Ed]
