Twitter rolled out the new policies saying that the company will either add fact-check labels to or hide altogether tweets that contain 'false or misleading information that causes confusion' about election rules
Washington Twitter announced Thursday that it is expanding its policies against election-related misinformation, setting new rules that will likely force the platform to more aggressively fact-check President Donald Trump during the final months of the 2020 campaign.
The social media giant rolled out the new policies in a blog post, which said that Twitter will either add fact-check labels to or hide altogether tweets that contain"false or misleading information that causes confusion" about election rules, or posts with"unverified information about election rigging." Twitter's porous and subjective policies have enabled Trump to spread a steady stream of misinformation about the election to millions of Americans.
