House Intel Ranking Member: Panel will have 'stronger partnership' with social media firms

House Intelligence Committee Ranking Member Adam Schiff (D-CA) said the panel will develop a "stronger partnership" with social media companies in order identify foreign entities trying to sow division within the country. "We're going to have to have a much stronger partnership where the intelligence committee identifies Russian troll farms like the one here, they share that information with the social media companies so they can identify those accounts and take them down," Schiff said. rep Schiff said these companies have to be "good corporate citizens" and dedicate more time and resources to properly monitor the threat of outside agents taking advantage of the platforms to influence attitudes or events in the US.
