The rise of Tory attack ads on Facebook The Conservatives seem to be targeting Facebook users in marginal constituencies with anti-Jeremy Corbyn attack adverts, designed to draw away the Labour faithful. Labour are also using Facebook advertising, but their messages are not focused on leaders and their personalities. BBC Trending is working with BBC Newsnight and BBC local radio to shed light on the role of social media advertising in the general election. We've asked readers, viewers and listeners to send examples of political adverts that you've noticed on your social media feeds. We're trying to overcome the opaque nature of political Facebook advertising (often dubbed "dark advertising") which is often only seen by the people who are targeted. We have been able to identify a few clear trends from the hundreds of ads that we've been sent so far. Here's the strongest: the Conservatives are paying for numerous adverts that attack Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn or his close allies, particularly John McDonnell and Diane Abbott. They broadcast a broadly negative message - warning people about the perceived threats of a Corbyn-led government. Is there no depths of depravity the RWNJ will not sink too Big mad scary typing in the Averts too - to induce fear and alarm and implant subliminal messages into the minds of the sheople They lack the capacity to fight it on their current track record of 7 years of brutal cuts to everyone save the rich, facts and their manifesto- which was truly shocking.
