Facebook fact checks user's gas meme: Facebook fact checked a user for sharing a meme about gas prices according to a purported screenshot. The meme included an image of a sign showing gas prices. The gas cost less than three dollars. The text on the image said, "never forget January 6th." Facebook claimed the post contained "false information" and linked to a PolitiFact article. Fact-checked posts lose exposure and are negatively affected by the platform's algorithm.
