Content Moderation Case Study: Twitter Freezes Accounts Trying To Fact Check Misinformation (2020)
Furnished content.
Summary: President Trump appeared on Fox News' Fox & Friends and made some comments that were considered by many experts to be misinformation regarding the COVID-19 pandemic. One quote that particularly stood out was: "If you look at children, children are almost -- and I would almost say definitely -- but almost immune from this disease. They don't have a problem. They just don't have a problem." This is false. While it has been shown that children are less likely to get seriously ill or die from the disease, that is very different from being immune.
