Media Bias/Fact Check[edit]

  • ... that data from Media Bias/Fact Check was used to train a machine learning algorithm to identify fake news? Source: "This approach, MIT claims, can help “stamp out” fake news outlets before the lies spread. Researchers fed data from Media Bias/Fact Check (MBFC)—which relies on human fact checkers to analyze more than 2,000 news sites—into a machine learning algorithm, programmed to classify URLs the same way as MBFC."[1]
  • Comments: Note that I created the draft article back in August with a list of sources (still in the history), but the expansion, prose writing, and publishing to mainspace happened on December 2-3.
