Welcome to another edition of #TheDailyThree, a weekday recap featuring three top stories in digital + a few thoughts. While I continue to believe that Facebook's troubles are a part of a passing storm, they're still dominating the news cycle so we're going to talk about it.
1. CNN reports that Zuckerberg will testify before congress regarding the Cambridge Analytica scandal. The House Energy + Commerce Committee looks to Zuck for detailed info on how Facebook dealt with the firm during the period it collected the data in question.
2. Another day, another lawsuit for Facebook. A civil rights group is alleging that Facebook allowed advertisers to exclude gender, family makeup + race in housing ads which goes against the Fair Housing Act. Facebook says they will defend themselves "vigorously."
3. I can't help but think how excited Google, Facebook's primary competitor, must be right now. The first month or so of the year saw YouTube getting unfavorable news coverage night after night + it's all but vanished after Facebook's scandal took over.
