"Facebook (ticker: FB) is in the middle of a global boycott from 1,000 advertisers, brought to task by a coalition of civil-rights groups that cite hate speech and voter suppression that appear on its platform," reports Max Cherney for Barron's. "Most stocks would crater under that kind of pressure, but not Facebook. Its shares have appreciated roughly 4% since the organizers announced their 10 demands in June, which include fact-checking political advertisements."
