00:00Do you have an interest in social media?
00:03Not 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
00:09Start with a gentle nod to show engagement
00:12Yeah, not so much, a little softer
00:16Yeah
00:18This is the journal's new Facebook detective
00:21He's not looking for Chabon, he's hunting for it
00:24You can't use my name and this is all off the record
00:26What would you like to talk about?
00:27I ran classifiers on political groups where 30% of content hits multiple risk factors
00:31Hang on, I don't understand what you're saying
00:33Aren't you a tech reporter?
00:34Ish
00:35Ish?
00:37I just want to be clear
00:38You love your work?
00:39Yes
00:41Connecting people, it's a virtuous mission
00:43Because some people are awkward
00:44They get to be their best self when they're alone at their keyboard
00:48So what's the problem?
00:49Something changed
00:50I wanted to find out who radicalized my friend
00:55And?
00:56We did
00:59Facebook wants you to stay on the site for as long as possible
01:02And two years ago, the algorithm was changed
01:05Wait, Mark
01:06We're trying to address hate speech
01:08And we're going to amplify and turbocharging
01:12The debate is over
01:16Why haven't you printed it?
01:17Because you didn't give me a story, you told me a story
01:19Oh, you're useless?
01:20It's not the first time I've heard that
01:22I want the internal documents
01:23I want proof
01:24She's going to get sued into small pieces
01:26We have 102 hours to get everything
01:29Evidence of drug cartels
01:31And a study that hasn't been made public on Instagram and teen mental health
01:36He has a source
01:38He won't give me his name, but he works here
01:40Did you know this was happening?
01:42I want the big story
01:43I want the bigger story
01:44I promise these sources they are going to be safe
01:46With each new file she opens, she's creating a footprint
01:50How hard is it to get powerful people to change something they're doing
01:53You have to cause pain
01:55You have to make it hurt
01:57Enough!
01:59People can post what they want
02:00We're not the rest
02:01We're the public square
02:02Are you crazy?
02:03You're like a crossing guard standing in front of a school
02:05But you're not doing anything with your arms
02:06So the cars are just plowing down the children
02:12You know you ruined that girl's life
02:14Well, she's going to be fine
02:15No
02:17No, she won't be
