HBO’s AXIOS PRESENTS AN INTERVIEW WITH FACEBOOK CEO MARK ZUCKERBERG

Axios co-founder Mike Allen sits down with the social media mogul for a candid and wide-ranging conversation

As the 2020 U.S. elections draw closer, Mike Allen talks to Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, where they discuss the platform’s plan to regulate hate speech and disinformation and mitigate election interference.

Speaking to the increasing public distrust and scrutiny of Big Tech, Zuckerberg shares what he would do differently if he could start over, his personal views on splitting up big tech and what we should expect from Facebook in the future.

The episode will be available on HBO and to stream on HBO Max. It will air TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 8 (11:00-11:30p.m. ET/PT).

AXIOS features insightful and news making interviews with top leaders and decision makers from a range of sectors, including politics, tech, media, science, and business. The program features Axios’ signature “Smart Brevity” analysis, exclusive documentary-style reporting, and in-depth conversations on the topics and trends shaping our future.

It recently scored worldwide prominence with its Trump interview done by Australian Axios reporter Jonathan Swan, which most media outlets labelled an “abject disaster” -- not for Swan, who was admirably dogged and professional, but for Trump’s numerous incoherencies throughout the piece.

AXIOS is a co-production of HBO Documentary Films, AXIOS and DCTV.
