YouTube's $25 Million Program to Fight Fake News

YouTube is launching this $25 million program, which they are categorizing as part of their goal to fight fake news. I don't quite understand what their goal is or what are the actionable items that they're trying to achieve here. They have this strange YouTube channel, which is like the news lab at Google that has a very sad number of views on their videos. And they're just talking about trying to increase the quality of journalism globally with their $25 million and trying to improve it on YouTube. How come they haven't called me former news corporation, BBC journalist turned YouTuber?
