Pages, websites that repeatedly publish or share false news will see "overall distribution reduced and be restricted' in other ways," says warning.
Facebook is warning users against sharing a study that found dangerously high carbon-dioxide intake in masked schoolchildren, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) Pediatrics.
"Pages and websites that repeatedly publish or share false news will see their overall distribution reduced and be restricted in other ways," the warning says when users paste the link on Facebook, before confirming they want to share it.
It's giving the same warning and threat of account restrictions to users who paste a link to Townhall.com article on a University of Florida lab that found dangerous pathogens on children's face masks, submitted for testing by their parents.
Just the News confirmed the warnings popped up on the two articles when pasting the links in Facebook posts. Each recommends a fact-check by organizations authorized by Facebook to vet posted articles — Lead Stories for the JAMA Pediatrics study, whose URL starts "hoax alert," and AFP France for the mask-pathogen lab report.

Jennifer Cabrera, who wrote the first article about the mask-pathogen lab report, shared Facebook screenshots that show AFP France reviewed the link 20 days after it was posted and Facebook added a warning that same day. She noted Facebook misidentified the fact-checker as AFP Africa.
"AFP's 'fact-check' simply highlights disagreements between the scientist who conducted the test and other scientists who did not conduct the test," she tweeted Wednesday. "Instead of acknowledging that more study would resolve the dispute, AFP calls the report false. That's not science — that's propaganda."
The organizations are certified by the Poynter Institute's International Fact-Checking Network, which received $1.3 million from the grant-making organizations founded by eBay founder Pierre Omidyar and progressive megadonor George Soros.
The Facebook servers need to go up in flames.

So they’re a publisher then.
Got it.
Thanks.

I have an Apple watch that measure my blood oxygen level.
It was 88% one day - normal is closer to 95% - and was wondering why it was so low - then remembered I had been forced to wear a mask during that time period - even though the media tell us that masks don’t cut down on oxygen levels.
It’s all in the science, you know.
Just sayin'.
I don’t have any respect today for any supposedly scientific journal, but they are an accepted (according to their standards, at least before this) “peer reviewed” publication.
I find it most illuminating that they are now attacking a supposed peer reviewed journal, but...maybe they aren’t as dumb as I assume they are.
Perhaps they understand just what a farce peer review really is these days...
Or perhaps they are being ideologues, which is in their nature.
FB is NOT a social media site. It’s a site whose purpose is to identify dissenters and to teach them a lesson.
They don’t care if you post pix of the dog. They do get angry when you express disagreement with the official party line that we are all expected to love and embrace.
When you share something that FB has decided is subversive, your head pops up above the crowd and now they know who you are. You are on a list of rebels. Yes, they give you a warning popup, but they now have you in their database of troublemakers. When there’s trouble, they know who to investigate.
If you have anything to do with those anon sites, you are now a violent extremist. And the site for posting pix of the dog has taken note of that and updated their database.
I’d like to know how it is determined what is “false news” & what isn’t. If Facebook says one thing & someone else has a different opinion I am inclined to hear the “different opinion” myself, altho that may not always be right.

IMHO, wearing a face mask is like living in a submarine or spacecraft with a malfunctioning CO2 scrubber. It’s not good for your health. And requiring healthy children to wear masks is CHILD ABUSE.
but demands the opposite for turd-world denizens.
If they have an open platform, how can they discriminate as to what people post? How are their “fact checkers” so smart as to know fake news from real news? They aren’t, that’s how. They are simply trying to control the narrative.

Ministry Of Truth
.......
The Ministry of Truth, Winston’s place of work, contained, it was said, three thousand rooms above ground level, and corresponding ramifications below.
The Ministry of Truth concerned itself with Lies. Party ownership of the print media made it easy to manipulate public opinion, and the film and radio carried the process further.
The primary job of the Ministry of Truth was to supply the citizens of Oceania with newspapers, films, textbooks, telescreen programmes, plays, novels - with every conceivable kind of information, instruction, or entertainment, from a statue to a slogan, from a lyric poem to a biological treatise, and from a child’s spelling-book to a Newspeak dictionary.
Winston worked in the RECORDS DEPARTMENT (a single branch of the Ministry of Truth) editing and writing for The Times. He dictated into a machine called a speakwrite. Winston would receive articles or news-items which for one reason or another it was thought necessary to alter, or, in Newspeak, rectify. If, for example, the Ministry of Plenty forecast a surplus, and in reality the result was grossly less, Winston’s job was to change previous versions so the old version would agree with the new one. This process of continuous alteration was applied not only to newspapers, but to books, periodicals, pamphlets, posters, leaflets, films, sound-tracks, cartoons, photographs - to every kind of literature or documentation which might conceivably hold any political or ideological significance. - George Orwell, 1984

One of those booger eaters has a name
Alan Duke.
War room handed him his ass the other day.
