Jesse Eisenberg Is Done Being 'Associated' With 'Problematic' Mark Zuckerberg

LOADING ERROR LOADING Jesse Eisenberg doesn’t even want to be Facebook friends with Mark Zuckerberg. The “Social Network” star told BBC Radio 4’s “Today” program Tuesday that just because he played the Meta CEO and Facebook co-founder in a movie, he doesn’t ally himself in any way with Zuckerberg — and was eager to distance himself as much as possible from the billionaire. Getty Last month, Zuckerberg announced that Meta was dumping its independent fact-checking program because the system had become “too politically biased.” Instead, he said Facebook and Instagram would now have to rely on “community notes” like on Elon Musk’s X, formerly called Twitter. “I think of it as somebody who’s married to a woman who teaches disability justice in New York and lives for her students are going to get a little harder this year.” Eisenberg is currently on a media blitz thanks to his latest film, last year’s “A Real Pain.” The movie, which he wrote, directed and starred in, was nominated for several Oscars. Last month, during an appearance on Bill Maher’s “Real Time,” Eisenberg was asked about his thoughts on “tech bros” — and responded with a question of his own directed at them.
