    META CEO Mark Zuckerberg met with US President-elect Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago on Friday, Semafor news website reported, citing a source familiar with the matter.

    Meta and Trump’s transition team did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.

    The US tech giant on Friday said it is ending its diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programmes, including those for hiring, training and picking suppliers, in a memo to its employees.

    The social media company earlier this week also scrapped its US fact-checking programme and reduced curbs on discussions around contentious topics such as immigration and gender identity, bowing to criticism from conservatives as Trump prepares to take office for a second time. REUTERS
