    Just catching up with the Facebook announcement about trusted news sources. That "the" is doing a lot of work here. https://www.facebook.com/zuck/posts/10104445245963251?pnref=story …pic.twitter.com/tYI9O2vj3X

        so the fascists will say that they trust the fascist sources, the jihadists the ISIS sources, the russian trolls the fake news sources and none will be the wiser

        Nailed it. Avoid the hive mind with Zuck as queen, think for yourself. "Without privacy, there is no democracy" heard this yesterday on a podcast. Needs further articulation but it relates to this.

        Wait, so a trusted news source is based yet again on opinion of fact rather than measure of fact? That'll work out.

        Let's fast forward a few months into the future. The most trusted news source in the U.S. will be Fox News. 😒

        And Zuck's reaction to that will be something along the lines of "The community has spoken. 🤷‍♂️"

        Facebook frequently claims their entire user base is a “community”. It implies a commonality that can’t possibly exist in >2 billion people.

        For some of us, the most trusted news source is a RU-based pro Trump website.
