Check (Freewrite Challenge)

Shall we believe the fact checks in social media as imposed by Facebook? The platform has tasked a third party team or organization to check if news shared are factual or simply "fake news". They call it "fact check" but I doubt if they can be trusted or not.

Such "fact checks" existed when the rulers of certain countries doesn't align to their ideology. In fact, these "fact check" organizations are not neutral, rather biased which posts they will mark as "real" or "fake news".

Anyway, Facebook is biased too so it doesn't matter if the partisanship of an organization providing such service is questionable. They are all support for the unfair and biased news of mainstream media as well. It doesn't matter anymore, because many people are wise and smart enough to know if a news from mainstream media are believable or not.
