Google adds fact-check findings to search and news results
Following Facebook’s lead, Google is calling on fact-checking organizations to help it bust fake news. But it’s starting in a pretty small way.
Beginning today, Google will present richer information from fact-checking sites like PolitiFact and Snopes when they show up in search and news results. Those sites will be able to display richer information on Google, including directly noting whether they’ve judged a claim to be true, false, or somewhere in between.
