Facebook & Fake News

Facebook is a social media platform that obviously cannot be trusted... I mean its social media. People log on there to update family with their life events and to post pictures to show off their positive things in life. Recently, Facebook has been more of a news related social media. With the increase of users and posts, fake news is a given. So what are they going to do about all of the fake news being broadcasted? TheVerge.com says that "[Facebook has] hired more human moderators; it’s giving users more information in-site about news sources; and in a recent interview, Mark Zuckerberg suggested that the company might set up some sort of independent body to rule on what content is kosher."
I guess we will see where they go from here.

True fabrication with the news

NBC nightly news  former news anchor Mr. Brian William is a prime examples of fake news, fake life, fake everything. He made his story sound believable.. ∵∵∵∵∵.😁  This dude blamed so many people of being apart of fake news, tweeting fake tweets but failed to realize his job was based on lies. Guess telling lies didn't stop from getting hired with another station. "Mr. Williams has been drawing 9.3 million viewers a night, and his position seemed unassailable. Even as the stature of the nightly newscast faded in the face of real-time digital news, Mr. Williams was one of the most trusted names in America and commanded the respect accorded predecessors like Walter Cronkite, Tom Brokaw and Peter Jennings." Ha.. the most trusted person, guess most of America loves fake news.
