Facebook to begin flagging fake news in response to mounting criticism
Fact checkers now endeavour to help facebook with its fake news problem. Facebook has uncovered its arrangements to flag fake news stories that manifest on the informal organization. This will work through clients firstly hailing the potential fake stories and this report being alluded to outside certainty checking associations once enough clients signal a story as fake. Among these reality checkers will be ABC News, AP, FactCheck.org, Politifact and Snopes (none of these associations being paid for their administrations). In the event that they regard it that a story is fake, it'll be 'freely hailed as "questioned by 23rd gathering certainty checkers.
I believe that this is long overdue but nonetheless still important for facebook to do. Despite earlier claims by mark zuckerburg who insisted facebook wasnt to blame for the influx of fake news stories this move sort of admits guilt on their behalf as this wouldnt need to be done now if it was never a problem in the first place.
