'The freedoms that we take for granted can be lost in a generation,' the actor said after Facebook suspended the 'Reagan' movie's page.
Actor Dennis Quaid and the marketers behind his upcoming movie about President Ronald Reagan are slamming Facebook for allegedly restricting their ability to promote the film, dubbed Reagan and set to open in theaters on August 30.'Facebook is once again censoring the free flow of ideas, deciding what's best for us to see and hear; only this time it's throttling advertising and promotion for my movie about Ronald Reagan,' the actor said via an email sent exclusively to Newsweek.
In May, the Reagan team posted a clip of Quaid being interviewed by Jordan Peterson, the psychologist and author who is considered controversial in some circles for his conservative views on cultural issues, though he refers to himself as a 'classic British liberal.'When McClellan attempted to boost the clip, Facebook would not allow him to because it was 'about social issues, elections or politics,' says the letter.
