Negli USA le bufale virali abbondano su Facebook

Nel Briefing settimanale, il sito #Indicator ospita un articolo nel quale si sottolinea come #Meta stia lasciando prosperare negli Stati Uniti le bufale virali
Il programma di verifica dei fatti di Meta esiste ancora al di fuori degli USA, ma i #factchecker statunitensi non ci sono più ed è stato adottato un approccio altamente permissivo per i contenuti falsi al 100% creati per ingannare e fare soldi.

The Fact Checker rose in an era of false claims. Falsehoods are now winning.

Longtime Fact Checker Glenn Kessler takes stock as he departs The Washington Post.

Analysis by Glenn Kessler

When 400 fact-checkers from around the world gathered in Rio de Janeiro in June for an annual conference, the mood was tense. After years of exponential growth, political fact-checking was in retreat and under fire. And somehow, even as fact-checking surged in the past decade, so had the wave of false claims and narratives swamping the world.

Meta, which after 2016 spent more than $100 million to fund 100 fact-checking organizations, ended a partnership with U.S. fact-checkers to highlight false claims and signaled it would cut back across the world. Google announced it would end its ClaimReview program — which I helped foster — that elevated fact checks in search results. Meanwhile, the Trump administration’s abrupt dismantling of the U.S. Agency for International Development cut off additional funding for fact-checkers in Eastern Europe, Africa, Latin America and Asia.

The state of the fact-checking field is on my mind as I write my last column for The Washington Post. I am taking a voluntary buyout, ending almost 28 years at the newspaper, including more than 14 as The Fact Checker.

Kessler has been the main author of The Fact Checker column since 2011 and serves as a member of the advisory board of the International Fact-Checking Network. He wrote that his “fact checks were routinely the most-read articles on The Post’s website.”

Les #fakes #FactChecker de #FranceIntox comparent la fiscalité US à la Fiscalité FR

Sauf qu'ils oublient de rappeler qu'un citoyen US paye des impôts aux USA où qu'il vive même à l'étranger.

ÉTATS-UNIS. Conformément au principe du droit fiscal américain selon lequel l'assujettissement à l'impôt est lié à la citoyenneté , les expatriés sont imposables aux États-Unis au titre de leurs revenus mondiaux . Les expatriés bénéficient de divers assouplissements à ce principe.
