Syracuse, NY…Syracuse University social media expert Jennifer Grygiel, assistant professor at the Newhouse School, is available for comment on the news that a Russian firm used Facebook ads during the 2016 election in order to target voters.
“I hope that this is a wake-up call to Mark Zuckerberg who failed to acknowledge that issues on Facebook influenced the U.S. election,” says Grygiel. “Congress needs to pay attention to this as well—there is a long history of policy, such as electioneering or live-streaming) in the broadcast and TV markets that should be examined and considered for social media companies.”
Prof. Grygiel is available to speak to media via phone, email, Skype, or LTN studio. Please contact Ellen James Mbuqe, director of news and PR at Syracuse University, at ejmbuqe@syr.edu or 315.443.1897 or Keith Kobland, media manager at Syracuse University, at kkobland@syr.edu or 315.443.9038.
