Facebook is tweaking its algorithm to prioritize content from friends over content from brands. The change, which won’t affect ads, should help foster digital friendships and diffuse the spread of fake news—all part of the plan to help “fix Facebook” and “boost the well-being of users.” Seventy-seven percent of Millennials told Ypulse that social media platforms have a responsibility to prevent the spread of false information/fake news, and Facebook argues that this change could help diversify the opinions that users are exposed to.
