The world's largest social network Facebook has said it will not remove fake or false news. Facebook claims are part of freedom of expression to publish these news.
Facebook says that false news does not violate their community standards.
In the meanwhile, 'The false news is not our friend' is currently running a campaign in Britain, popular social network in the slogan. But they are saying that those who publish news on this platform have different 'different views' of theirs.
They said that the posts that appear to be false news will be kept in low-profile news-feed.
After the information came to the notice of Facebook in the field of spreading false news or false news about the information that Russia tried to influence voters using the use of social media in the US presidential election.
At a ceremony in New York on Wednesday, the organization was trying to convince journalists that they have given importance to solving this problem.
But CNN's journalist Oliver Darcy questions, as long as the information pages are on this platform, how does Facebook claim that they are trying to solve the issue of spreading false news?
Info is a website that is known for publishing various false news.
They have a live talk show online and have more than 9 million followers or followers on Facebook. Alex Jones's YouTube subscriber number, as an introducer and conspiracy theorist, is more than 2.44 million.
The false information is clearly evident from his platform. Such conspiracy theories are circulated that the events of the 2012 shootings in the Sandy Hook School were false news promoted by the US government.
So, in response to CNN's journalist's query about these environments, Facebook official John Hesman said, "We've launched Facebook, a place where different people can raise their opinions or opinions."
The company says it will not remove any false news that does not violate their rules. But the ones that seem to be the latest news will be dropped in the low-ranking.
This website was launched by using a red warning icon for the fact that the fact checkers identified as false.
