About this sermon
Big changes are coming to Facebook and Instagram's fact-checking. CEO Mark Zuckerberg says they will use the model made popular by the social media giant formerly known as Twitter. The company also plans to allow "more speech" by lifting some restrictions on topics considered to be part of the mainstream. Zuckerberg acknowledged that the changes are partially due to Donald Trump's election victory, which he categorized as "a cultural tipping point towards once again prioritizing speech". Zuckerberg said the fact-checkers have been too politically biased and eroded trust. Daniel Cochrane from the Heritage Foundation joins to share in what ways we have seen their bias. Meta will now use user-generated community notes. Cochrane discusses how exactly that will work. He tells us whether the user-generated fact-checking could be biased as well. Cochrane explains the kind of effect this will have across the social media industry and whether more platforms will follow suit. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
