How do you solve a problem like fake news? That's the question Facebook is striving to answer as it faces mounting pressure from critics over its role (or lack thereof) in preventing misinformation during the 2016 U.S. presidential election. But the responsibility is not Facebook's alone. If the social network is broken, it's incumbent upon all of its users to help fix it. The company has put together a new set of policies and standards for fighting fake news, determining what goes viral, and organizing its news feed — but CEO Mark Zuckerberg says he still wants to be careful to support free speech and "the right to be wrong." In an interview with Recode's Kara Swisher last week, Zuckerberg explained, "If we were taking down people's accounts when they got a few things wrong, that would be a hard world for giving people a voice." He suggested that Facebook should prevent hoaxes and maliciously incorrect information from going viral — but not remove misinformation altogether.
