And, as always, this could be fake news.

[BenLurkin]

Or they could really be hiring censors.

I’d be more impressed with Apple if in the next iOS update there was a new feature setting that would only allow me to receive calls from my contacts list... BAMB! No more robo calls!

The aim of this move is to present reliable news to its readers ahead of the mid-term elections.

So it is rooted in politics.

The fine folks over at Apple would never be biased in their beliefs, right?

It's not like they are a conglomeration of young liberals fresh out of college...

And by fake news they mean anything that counters the leftard narrative or puts out bad news about a leftard.

Who in the blazes made LEFTIST, "Made in COMMUNIST China", Chinese SLAVE LABOR loving A P P L E the arbiter of what is and is not "Fake News" IN AMERICA?

Leftist, facial recognition Fakebook, goose-step Google, and "Made in China" Apple can all "take a hike" as far as determining "Fake News".

“Human editors”? LOL!! Lying bastards. Apple means “subversive Marxist propagandists”.

[Truthoverpower]

Trying to squelch news is much harder than making it Censorship these days is nearly impossible Even the Chinese the mullahs etc can't do it effectively Not with the internet satellites and cell phones Listening devices can be as small as a small button now It's great Because the everlasting truth will eventually win in the end. It. Cannot lose The key evils to defeat are Islam and socialism Communism is dead 💀 Socialism has had some spectacular failures recently and now the educational commie front is being exposed The demoncat party IS their vehicle The republic party by DEFAULT is ours

>> These stories will be well-sourced and fact-based. <<

HA! That, right there, is fake news at it’s finest. The last honest editor left town in his brand new 1960 Buick. There’s been no such honest critter with a sharp blue pencil since then. The newspaper editors back in the day would have unleashed a profane dressing down on every one of these print and broadcast hacks today. Then, he’d have blown a cloud of cigar smoke in their face and growled, “Do it over, KID, and do it right this time.”

Apple assigns ‘human editors’ to tackle fake news

Now, what possibly could go wrong with this plan?

[catnipman]

“The aim of this move is to present reliable news to its readers”

well, i guess that should pretty much eliminate CNN, right? (he said sarcastically) ...

[catnipman]

“These stories will be well-sourced”

which means that 99% of “news” will now be eliminated from Apple’s vetted sources since the leftist fake stream media publishes mostly anonymous rumors at this point, right? (he said sarcastically) ...
