Facebook recently placed a “fact-checking” label on a post written by top economist Phillip Magness, the research and education director at the American Institute for Economic Research, after he stated that America is now in a recession. Magness fired back at Mark Zuckerberg and the Masters of the Universe, saying, “We live in an Orwellian hell-scape. Facebook is now ‘fact checking’ anyone who questions the White House’s word-games about the definition of a recession.”

The Daily Mail reports that Facebook recently placed a “fact-checking” label on a post from top economist Phillip Magness, who stated that America is now in a recession. Magness is the research and education director at the American Institute for Economic Research and called the censorship “Orwellian.”

The post was marked by Facebook’s “factcheckers” as “misleading” to which Magness tweeted: “We live in an Orwellian hell-scape. Facebook is now ‘fact checking’ anyone who questions the White House’s word-games about the definition of a recession.”
