A new report highlights the potential conflict between Facebook’s fact-check program — which carries the authority to determine what content is censored on the platform — and partisan entities and individuals involved in that program.
Sky News Australia reported this week that an individual at the “top levels” of the certification process for fact-checkers used by Facebook has openly expressed “unashamedly politically biased” views, particularly against Donald Trump and in favor of Hillary Clinton. Her publicizing of partisan views, the outlet suggests, clashes with her organization’s portrayal by Facebook as a “non-partisan” entity.
