Techcrunch -------- Facebook today revealed that it’s chosen not to shut down all political ads because that could unfairly favor incumbents and candidates without resources to buy pricey TV ads.

That includes ads run by news publishers or others that promote articles with political content. To learn more click on the picture below to read the article.
