It's not a technological problem, it's a news literacy problem. It's an information literacy problem, says Kalev Leetaru in his article for Forbes,
A Reminder That 'Fake News' Is An Information Literacy Problem - Not A Technology Problem.
I myself wonder when Facebook is going to fix its problems with hate speech, misleading pages, too many ads, etc. Leetaru is correct when he said it's the readers' problem, not technology.
My mother tried to teach me that lesson seventy years ago, "Believe half of what your eyes see and none of what your ears hear."
