Before Wednesday, in pursuit of our ongoing look at how Facebook has become used as a platform for disinformation, I want you to look at one of the third-party fact check organizations FB has used to evaluate news stories. Go to one of the sites below, and look up one story on a topic that is of interest to you. Next class, I want you to have a link to that story – and please write out (and print out) a one-to-two paragraph summary on what you found persuasive (or unpersuasive) about the fact-checking site's argument.
