News from local sources will be the priority now on Facebook

Undoubtedly the social network Facebook is making the news for many reasons and the most prominent is the scandal with Cambridge Analytica and the leak of the personal data of more than 50 million people. Now the social network will update the «news feed»From its users around the world so that they receive local news and avoid a little more«fake news«.

Today this measure is announced and we will surely have other similar ones to avoid this type of false news that reaches users. The social network is making news day after day and it really needs a thorough image wash to scare away the bad streak a bit, we will see if they are able to take the right direction although the brand will remain in the history forever.

La Mark Zuckemberg's company, is in full battle for its integrity and this fake news is something they have been fighting for for a long time, in fact in the United States the tests in this regard with local news began last January 2018 and now it spreads to more countries. What is intended with this is that the news that reaches the end user is directly legitimate and from the geographical region in which it is located.
