You’ll be able to watch Zuckerberg take the hot seat on multiple channels today:
House Energy and Commerce Committee
Tuesday’s hearing will start at 10 a.m. It can be streamed live via the Energy and Commerce Committee’s website.

PBS will have a livestream, as will NBC News.
Reuters TV
Reuters will also stream Tuesday’s hearing live on Reuters TV.
C-SPAN

Based on Monday’s testimony, we can expect Zuckerberg will be saying, “I’m sorry,” a lot about the Cambridge Analytica scandal. We can also expect some political theater from more bravado-driven politicians intent on haranguing Zuckerberg over Facebook’s inability to inhibit foreign bad actors and fake pages and profiles from spreading misinformation, which many believe contributed to the election of President Donald Trump in 2016.
