When the third party fact-Checking system rates a post as false or fake, the post will appear less or at the bottom of the news feed and hence reduces the spread of the post. When a post is found lacking authenticity, the third party fact checking system will write articles about the content which will reflect in the related articles section immediately below the story. The fact checking system also sends the notification to the person who shared a news or item with false information, about its lack of authenticity.
