Two of Facebook's four fact checkers, Snopes and the Associated Press, have abruptly ended their fact-checking relationship with the social media giant. In a Friday press release, Snopes said that it had "elected not to renew our partnership with Facebook," and while declining to reveal specifics, added that "Forgoing an economic opportunity is not a decision that we or any other journalistic enterprise can take lightly." While Snopes initially agreed to fact check for free, they eventually accepted $100,000 for its fact-checking services last year. The announcement comes on the heels of a December report that the two-year relationship between Facebook and its fact checkers was in disarray.
Read somewhere reputable that Facebook has 15,000 internal "content moderators".
