Fake Nancy Pelosi Videos: What Facebook, YouTube, Twitter Are Doing

Irina Raicu, director of the Internet Ethics, quoted in SiliconValley.com

“Playing down the visibility of a doctored video (one with significant political implications) in the News Feed is not going to address the spread of the video in other powerful ways — for example via Facebook groups,” said Irina Raicu, director of the Internet Ethics Program at the Markkula Center for Applied Ethics at Santa Clara University. “So Facebook will still allow its platform to be used to amplify, worldwide, what is clearly misinformation.”
