Facebook Will Start Telling You When a Story May Be Fake

Facebook

The Washington Post is reporting that Facebook is rolling out some new tools to help tell users when news stories in their feed may be fake:

“We have a responsibility to reduce the spread of fake news on our platform,” said Facebook’s Adam Mosseri, vice president of product development, in an interview with The Post. Mosseri added that Facebook still wants to be a place where people with all kinds of opinions can express themselves. And Facebook has no interest in being the arbiter of what’s true and what isn’t for its billion users, he said.
