Misinformation and hoaxes on the Slovak version of Facebook will be less visible and eventually removed.
Facebook has announced that Agence France Presse (AFP) will fact-check social media content in Slovakia and the Czech Republic.
Checkbot educates and warns. It never tells the truth
“The fight against fake news is a commitment that we take very seriously,” said Guido Buelow, Facebook’s strategic partner development manager for Europe, the Middle East and Africa.
It is not the first time Facebook will cooperate with AFP as the agency, and its journalists are the company’s key fact-checking partners, he added.
