We want all internet browsers, social media and search engines to label fake news. We believe news organizations should be rated on their journalistic integrity. See TrustworthiNEWS.org for all details.
Why is this important?
We are a group of concerned citizens who are alarmed by the proliferation of fake news on the Internet and want to help combat this problem. Currently, many American get their news from Internet sites that include misinformation or downright lies. The spread of false news outlets is poisoning political discourse as well as affecting world events in unpredictable and dangerous ways. We believe that the Internet needs to adapt and provide a means to assist people in differentiating news based on facts from fake news that is written with the intent to deceive or for entertainment purposes.
