Facebook ABANDONS Phony Fact Checking!

Meta will get rid of fact-checkers, “dramatically reduce the amount of censorship” and recommend more political content on its platforms, including Facebook, Instagram and Threads, founder Mark Zuckerberg has announced.

In a video message, Zuckerberg vowed to prioritize free speech after the return of Donald Trump to the White House and said that, starting in the US, he would “get rid of fact-checkers and replace them with community notes similar to X”.

Zuckerberg said Meta’s “fact-checkers have just been too politically biased and have destroyed more trust than they’ve created”.

Guest hosts Russell Dobular and Keaton Weiss of the Due Dissidence podcast discuss the move from Zuckerberg, and the sordid history of fact checking at Facebook.
