Google is Introducing a New Feature for Fact Checking
Journal Title: Media Literacy and Academic Research - Year 2018, Vol 1, Issue 2
Abstract
The article reviews the recent introduction of Google’s Fact Check Tool available in the Google News section. The tool is focused on the examination of articles that claim to be correct by checking the facts stated in the articles, based on an algorithmic process in cooperation with review systems. The Fact Check Tool is currently in beta version, accessible on certain websites in the United States and the United Kingdom. The algorithmic process is not yet final and requires improvements in order to state an objective approach towards the reviewing of articles without human affecting the checking.
