Once deemed ‘unsafe’ by Facebook, Diamond and Silk are now coming to Capitol Hill

Republican Reps have invited “Diamond” and “Silk,” two conservative video bloggers who were deemed “unsafe” by Facebook after becoming online sensations, to testify April 26 about allegations of conservative bias online.

The hearing before the House Judiciary Committee comes as Republican lawmakers accuse Facebook, Google and Twitter of favoring the liberal points of view popular in Silicon Valley and censoring conservative opinions. All three companies have been invited to attend the hearing but have not said whether they will attend.
