Surprise! Facebook Likes "The Social Network"–Or At Least Its Producers

The Facebook executive suite is justifiably nervous about the way the real world receives “The Social Network,” which opens next week. As it should be: The movie portrays CEO Mark Zuckerberg as a friendless soul. But for the record, the social network has given up publicly fighting with “The Social Network”‘s producers. Facebook’s official position, via the WSJ: “We found working with Scott Rudin and his colleagues to be a terrific learning experience. They do a wonderful job of telling a good story.”
