Babylon Bee CEO Seth Dillon doesn't plan to delete a joke naming U.S. Assistant Secretary for Health Dr. Rachel Levine the satire site's "Man of the Year" ...

Facebook had previously demonetized the satire site, claiming that a satirical article that quoted "Monty Python and the Holy Grail" constituted an incitement to violence. In March 2021, The New York Times insinuated that The Babylon Bee is a "far-right misinformation site." The left-leaning fact-checker Snopes has long also gone after the Bee, once even fact-checking a story that CNN had bought a washing machine to "spin the news." "Let them ban you," Dillon said. "We don’t concede for a moment that we are speaking hate speech here," he said. So we did a satirical take on this, and we named Rachel Levine as our man of the year," Dillon said.

"These rules have always been enforced arbitrarily and inconsistently," Dillon said. "That’s this tricky area that we’re landing in doing comedy as conservatives whose views simply differ from the popular narrative."
