The White House is not at war with Facebook, it’s at war with the coronavirus. That’s the word from Press Secretary Jean Psaki during her daily news briefing. This, as her boss – President Biden – said big tech was “killing people” by not controlling people’s posts on Friday.

Psaki again ripped vaccine misinformation on social media and said companies like Facebook are not doing enough to combat it. Psaki argued that bad, inaccurate information about vaccines is killing people.

Her comments came after President Biden walked back his criticism of Facebook during an earlierevent, acknowledging that the social media giant is not literally killing anyone. He said there are about a dozen people "out there" promoting misinformation on social media platforms. Biden added, "Anyone listening to it is getting hurt by it – it's killing people – it's bad information."
