Because it will be used for political means and ignored for helpful misinformation. Russian election manipulation <-> LGBT propaganda. Just bullshit for self-serving political gains, not difficult to see the mirror-images of stupidity here. So let it fly and let people judge themselves. That misinformation is a problem on the internet is misinformation. The reality is that there is political dissent. That dissent has a right to be heard and the accusation of misinformation has done enough damage, it was quite stupid. Of course established media supported such a perspective because they have difficulties justifying their place in the difficult economy of today. Everything is misinformation until you have a significantly trustworthy source. There will be difference between individuals. Even if people believe misinformation at first, it will only solve itself if you let people do their own research. "Fact-checkers" are no such trustworthy sources, frankly they could serve as an example of what not to do.
