If this is true, then the Obama administration might as well suspend all further facebook activities. Nobody puts out more BS than those slimy critters.

[humblegunner]

Bad news for blogs I guess.

Leftists mark truth-bearing news stories in 3...2...1...

Facebook clamps down on fake news stories

Wow. I just posted this story on my FB page. Facebook pulled it as it was fake.

I’m So Confused.

Now if we can only get the NYT and CBS to do the same

Facebook clamps down on fake news stories.

Great. Can’t wait to see how many phony Global Warming (oops, I meant Climate Change) stories they will be pulling.

We have a lot of liberal propaganda spread here as fake news stories, too. Just look at the paid trolls posting daily articles for Tesla, Apple, Joel Olsteen, etc.

This means conservative news stories will be mass-flagged, and removed. Write about Sharia law? FAKE — FLAGGED. “Radical Islam”? FAKE — FLAGGED. “Reparative Therapy for Gays”? FAKE — FLAGGED. Evils of GMO? FAKE!

"A post with a link to an article that many people have reported as a hoax or chose to delete will get reduced distribution in the News Feed," Facebook explained.

Leftists will use this as a tool to block conservative news sites, by simply (for example) clicking "hoax" on any article from Fox or other conservative source.

The GOp’s Romney/Jeb stories are now in mortal danger.

‘...purposefully fake or deceitful news...’

“ABCBSNBCNN? Please pick up the white Courtesy Phone in the Lobby!”

In other words, Facebook will now determine what is true.

Bow your knee to your new overlord.

[Mr. K]

so the libtards will just mark EVERY true news story that makes them look bad as a hoax...

every time they try to make it foolproof you can count on there being bigger fools

Facebook-Google-Youtube-Obola Ministry of Truth (censorship).
Its Sooo funny how clueless people are about Facebook’s blatant disregard for ethical conduct and respecting user’s privacy.

Where’s the fun in that?

[WKUHilltopper]

So now they’re the “Great Poobah” determining what is fake or real? FUFB.

[minnesota_bound]

Fake? This from a company that claims 1.4 billion users....
900 million when they had their public stock offering.

Yep they had all the people in North America and most of Europe as users....
