Facebook continues to struggle with fake news

Facebook has long had a lot of trouble with fake news. For this reason, they started working with associations such as AP or Snopes a long time ago, so that it could be determined more precisely whether or not a news item was false. But it seems that this collaboration is not going as expected. Because Snopes announces that they stop collaborating with the social network.

It has been the company it has been the company itself that has announced that they stop collaborating with the social network through a statement on their website. A piece of news that makes it clear that something is not working well.

Facebook and fake news

In these years and today, Facebook continues to introduce new features with which to try to prevent the spread of fake news. But for now, not all of them have had the desired effect. Because today fake news is still a huge problem on the social network. In addition, the program that the social network introduced to control whether they were false or not, in which Snopes collaborated, was not really beneficial for these companies.

According to these companies, they were only dedicated to making the job easier for the social network, without them really making a profit from it. So it seems that there are serious problems in this program.

At the moment it seems that AP continues to collaborate with Facebook in this program. Although we do not know how much longer this collaboration between the two parties will last. We will see what the social network has to say on this matter.
