Regardless of your political leanings, you’ve probably encountered an instance of the “fake news” phenomenon over the past year. Google now has a tool to make it go away. What does this look like and will it actually work?

The search engine hasn’t actually created a special fact-checker. Instead it has modified the way it searches for requests (like the infamous “Pizzagate” scandal) by putting fact-checker sites like Politifact and Snopes first in its search results.

Because of the variety of opinions in an already polarized political field, Google has said that its update will not offer a definitive fact-checker. But, by dredging up a number of dissenting opinions in its top search results, the company hopes it will make it so that facts and opinions are “presented so people can make more informed judgments.”

To be included in the update as a fact-checker, publishers need to contact Google and add an additional line of code to their websites.

Google is not alone in its fight against “fake news.” Facebook, the other viral news giant, has launched its own campaign, which includes a fact checking tool that tells users if the claims made in an article have been disputed. In addition, Facebook has launched its own politics forum, so its users can inform themselves without having to rely on the news, whether it be real or fake.

Whether or not these measures succeed in stopping falsehood remains to be seen. Both Facebook and Google may have the best intentions, but a line of code is rarely enough to stop dishonesty.
