Fact-checked news is losing the algorithm battle – here’s what you can do.
[[link removed]]Dear Friend,

Feeling disinformed when you navigate social media in times of crisis? You’re not alone.

The Israel-Gaza conflict has highlighted how unmoderated platforms are being
weaponized to spread disinformation and propaganda, or simply lure more
followers to their pages.

Well-curated and fact-checked news is losing the algorithm battle to
controversial, inaccurate content – and people are left unable to discern what’s true and what’s false.

Social media companies are not victims in this conflict. They are failing to enforce their own rules and putting profit before users’
safety.

What can you do? The most important thing is to verify before you amplify. Avoid spreading unchecked information.
