I think it's somewhat dangerous mindset that the "fake news problem" should/could be handled solely by the publishing platform. There will always be another way to publish false information. People believe fake news because they want to believe. Introducing any kind of sensoring authority will only treat the symptoms, not the disease, making the long-term problem worse. Basic education, equal opportunities etc. are the only sustainable solution.
