New York's Probe of Facebook Backed by 46 Attorneys General
-----------------------------------------------------------

New York State Attorney General Letitia James announced that the state's
probe of Facebook for violating antitrust regulations is now backed by
attorneys general from 46 other states and territories. James said the
probe is looking at whether Facebook put consumer data at risk, reduced
the quality of consumers' choices and increased the price of
advertising. This comes as Facebook CEO Mark Zuckeberg testifies today
on Capitol Hill. We will have more on Facebook after headlines.
