It's not their duty to fact-check articles for truthfulness... but they could apply some basic vetting to sources they put in people's feeds. A majority of Facebook-inserted content (ads and Suggested Posts) in my feed is either phony clickbait (complete with blatant copyright violations, e.g. claiming to come from ESPN, People, etc.) or sports merchandise ads from fake fan entities pushing counterfeit goods. Facebook clearly makes a great deal of money from these phonies and feels no incentive to inhibit them in the slightest.
