Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer says Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg should do more to curb hate speech on the platform, days after a page was shut down over racist, misogynistic posts advocating violence against Muslims and female Democrats.
Whitmer went on social media Friday to post a letter she sent to Zuckerberg.
The creator of the anti-Whitmer group deactivated it after the Metro Times in Detroit began asking questions.
Facebook says it prohibits hate speech and anything that advocates for violence. A spokesman says the company appreciates Whitmer notifying Facebook and is in touch with her office to address her concerns.
