Or maybe it's failing because of the inherent bias in the subjective judgements by Facebook as to what is fake news.

From the beginning of the Facebook entrepreneurial undertaking, wise parents warned their families that those who expected to get their news from Facebook were either lazy or ignorant of such an undertaking's dangers.
Many of us have been disappointed when normally intelligent offspring became consumers of garbage instead seekers for truth!

Also, much of what the left calls “fake news” are just posts which reject liberal assumptions.

they realized that they would have to get rid of content from the big alphabet networks.

How do you cancel a FaceBook account?
I really want to (intend) to “cancel, cancel” the FB account.

If Fakebook says it’s fake, it’s probably true.

Apparently people are smarter than Zuckbook thought.

Suckerberg reminds me of a 13-year old kid, who thinks he’s smarter than his parents and adults in general.

If they ban CNN, ABC, NBC and CBS posts they’d eliminate most all the fake news.

Whatever happened to "buyer beware"?
Read what you want and make up your own mind whether it's true of not.
Somehow we have acceded that judgment to the lame stream media and take what they tell us a fact.
How many times in the past have we been asked how do we know something's true? And the answer was, "I saw it on TV" or "I read it in the newspaper"? But that doesn't work anymore.
Facebook was going down the road of censorship based on some Lefty's decision what was true or fake. What could go wrong? :-)
