Here is an article I have translated from the french press today : 

Link for the french article : http://www.liberation.fr/checknews/2018/01/08/est-il-vrai-que-facebook-remunere-le-monde-et-liberation-pour-aider-a-trier-les-fake-news_1620972

Transaltion : In its  last week edition , the  ( Canard Enchainé )  published an article entitled "Between the World and Facebook, a beautiful fake account," which is much talked about. The paper "reveals" that the social network finances the world of press. An article both a little oversold and incomplete.

Oversold because it's not a scoop. Incomplete because Le Monde is not the only French media funded by Facebook to hunt for fake news. Liberation (as well as other media) are also paid by FB for the same job.

No secret


Note also that the team of Désintox did not wait for the article duck chained to speak about it. On Saturday, December 30, on France Inter, a member of the team of Désintox addressed this question: "Facebook relies on journalists today to clean up its own social network. We, we work for Facebook, as a number of media in France work for Facebook. We are paid to clean up the contents that are circulating. "
So to lift the suspicion of secrecy. Let's get to the bottom, which is the most important.

Since Facebook was accused of being the main sounding board of fake news during the presidential campaign in the United States, the American giant had to show paw and advance pawns. Facebook has notably announced its desire to clean up its own social network by relying on media whose work was already doing factchecking. As early as last April, Facebook exposed this strategy, as told in this article by Les Echos.

How it works?

Specifically, several French media (but also American) are recipients of a list of links sent by Facebook, a list that refers to content reported by the algorithm or Internet users. There are several hundred links in the list. This Monday morning, we count for example 374.


I think this is very interesting to note .....And many questions come to mind .

What s the future of FB ? 
What is the future of press? 
Can you feel somehting changing in our ways of communicating ? 

I have been feeling that our world is taking a profonde change and mutation , even more latelty with more and more people going into cryptos and finding another ways of fullfiling their lives and refusing thought control and stereotypes.

Steemit is part of that "mutation" and its philosophy leading towards somehting new .
