A confidential, 49-page memo for defeating Trump by working with the major social-media platforms to eliminate "Right wing propaganda and fake news" was presented in January 2017 by Media Matters founder David Brock at a retreat in Florida with about 100 donors, the Washington Free Beacon reported at the time.
The strategies are impeachment, expanding Media Matters' mission to combat "Government misinformation," ensuring Democratic control of the Senate in the 2018 midterm elections, filing lawsuits against the Trump administration, monetizing political advocacy, using a "Digital attacker" to delegitimize Trump's presidency and damage Republicans, and partnering with Facebook to combat "Fake news."
The document claims Media Matters and far-left groups have "Access to raw data from Facebook, Twitter, and other social media sites" so they can "Systemically monitor and analyze this unfiltered data."
Media Matters met with Facebook, which boasts some 2 billion members worldwide, to discuss how to crack down on fake news, according to the memo.
The social media giant was provided with "a detailed map of the constellation of right-wing Facebook pages that had been the biggest purveyors of fake news."
Facebook, meanwhile has changed its newsfeed algorithm, ostensibly to combat "Fake news," causing a precipitous decline in traffic for many conservative sites.
A study in June by Gateway Pundit found Facebook had eliminated 93 percent of the traffic of top conservative news outlets.
