I don't know how they plan to implement this, but I see some potential here. No one ever claims that slander and libel laws can't coexist with free speech, so why can't the same principle be applied to malicious rumors in general. Fake news that's explicitly designed to hurt the common good, is just as bad for society as slander and libel. If we can trust our courts to distinguish between valid accusations and slander, why can't we trust them to recognise and punish malicious-fake-news as well.
