Facebook is throwing away "disputed flags," one of its several attempts to curb the spread of fake news across the social network.  。

About a year ago, Facebook launched the feature, where red flag icons were put next to articles that were identified to be false by a team of independent fact-checking organizations.。

“Related Articles, by contrast, are simply designed to give more context, which our research has shown is a more effective way to help people get to the facts," Facebook product manager Tessa Lyons wrote in the blog post announcement. 。
