Community Notes Coming to Facebook Following X’s Lead
Mark Zuckerburg announced this morning that Facebook's fact-checkers will soon be a thing of the past.
Facebook (Meta) will take the lead from Elon Musk on X for community notes in favor of the fact-checking that Meta imposed years ago to allow free speech today.
Facebook Feed Changes, Too
Not only that, but your feed can now see more of what you want if it includes political content and news, which the algorithm has downplayed for some time.
It’s nice to see users have more control over what they want to see on the biggest social media network in the world today.
The Power of X
This shows the power of X—from changing governments to businesses and now social media with freedom of speech.
In the past, Twitter was known for its fast-breaking news, but today, it allows its users to share news as they see it and at the moment it happens.
Of course, not all news may be accurate. But has the so-called real news been trustworthy in the past 8+ years?
The death of legacy media is now upon us. I feel bad about that as I spent 25 years working for one in marketing in the newspaper business.
