WRAL, PolitiFact launch new 'Facebook Fridays' segment
Today, WRAL and PolitiFact roll out "Facebook Fridays." Each Friday, we'll examine a viral Facebook post that has been fact-checked by PolitiFact. The segment will likely take on the same format as our other PolitiFact segments and air roughly around the same time.
Posted — UpdatedSoon, you’ll see a different speaker under the microscope: You. More specifically, you the Facebook user.
WRAL News and PolitiFact are rolling out “Facebook Fridays.” Every Friday, we’ll examine a viral Facebook post that has been fact-checked by PolitiFact.
Posts will concern politics or current events – not necessarily a politician.
Social media can be fertile ground for misinformation, so PolitiFact partners with Facebook to fight the spread of false news.
