Award-Winning Filmmaker Ken Burns Calls for Facebook CEO’s Arrest

OPINION | This article contains commentary that reflects the author's opinion.

Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg “doesn’t give a sh*t about us, the United States,” says award-winning filmmaker and historian Ken Burns.

Burn calls Zuckerberg “an enemy of the state” who belongs in jail.

While promoting a new film about Muhammad Ali, Burns is asked whether Zuckerberg could be as culturally significant in a few decades as the boxing legend is now.

“I mean, I hope Zuckerberg is in jail by then,” Burns replied.

“This is an enemy of the state, and I mean the United States of America. He doesn’t give a sh-t about us, the United States,” Burns continued. “He knows he can transcend it. He can get away to any place. And so it’s just about filthy lucre, that’s it.”

Speaking about Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg, Burns added, “Because these people — and Sheryl is a complicit — the Nuremberg of this, is if it ever happens, which it won’t, will be pretty interesting.”

“The way that we’ve been able to temporize and say, ‘Oh, it’s okay, we’ll just go a little bit further,’ right?”
