About the Book

Academic Paper from the year 2013 in the subject Communications - Mass Media, language: English, abstract: The focus of this work is to evaluate the opinion of members of the Facebook Community forum on the Fact Checking policy of Facebook.

It also prevents the growing effect of corruption b
