Selena Gomez Says Social Media CEOs 'Failed the American People' After U.S. Capitol Breach - Billboard

In a note shared to Twitter following the chaos in Washington D.C., Gomez specifically called out Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Google as entities, plus YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki, Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey, and CEO of Alphabet Inc. and Google Sundar Pichai.

"Today is the result of allowing people with hate in their hearts to use platforms that should be used to bring people together and allow people to build community," she wrote, before naming the aforementioned list of tech leaders. "You have all failed the American people today, and I hope you're going to fix things moving forward."

Gomez has openly shared her condemnation of Facebook's misinformation before. In December, she called out inaccuracies about the COVID-19 vaccine on the platform. "Scientific disinformation has and will cost lives," she wrote. "@Facebook said they don’t allow lies about COVID and vaccines to be spread on their platforms. So how come all of this is still happening? Facebook is going to be responsible for thousands of deaths if they don’t take action now!"
