Tom Pappert

Editor-in-Chief of National File says Facebook 'has locked a news outlet out of its own Facebook page': Tom Pappert, the editor-in-chief of National File, indicated on Twitter and in an email to The Media Research Center's (MRC) TechWatch that Facebook demoted him from administrator to moderator of National File's Facebook page. "Facebook has locked a news outlet out of its own Facebook page with no recourse," tweeted Pappert. He added that Facebook "then removed me as the owner of the Flyover Media LLC business account that owns National File." Pappert told MRC's Techwatch that these two moves "effectively ban the National File Facebook page without our readers even knowing what happened.” He suspects National File readers may get a false impression that “we simply stopped using Facebook,” or that “we've stopped publishing entirely, despite the fact that we have broken critical stories relating to the Arizona and Georgia presidential election,” according to Alexander Hall's piece at Newsbusters that chronicled the issue.
