Sacha Baron Cohen denounces Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and Google as ’the greatest propaganda machine in history’ and culpable for a surge in ‘murderous attacks on religious and ethnic minorities’. The actor focuses on Facebook, saying that ‘if you pay them, the platform will run any “political” ad you want, even if it’s a lie’. Baron Cohen is speaking on Thursday at Never Is Now, the Anti-Defamation League’s summit on antisemitism and hate in New York, where he is presented with the organisation’s international leadership award.
