GRASSLEY UPS NURSING HOME SOCIAL MEDIA PROBE — Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) continued to press Facebook, Instagram and Snapchat this week as he investigates how some nursing home workers have abused residents by posting explicit photos of them across social media platforms. Grassley sent each company a letter asking them to indicate the number of images they’ve removed because the content constitutes this type of elder abuse, and how many accounts they’ve taken down for such activity. He’s requested a response by Sept. 21.
