I think if you truly want to battle misinformation then you can't use the approach of dragging people kicking and screaming to The Truth. Rather, help people find it for themselves. Give people empowering tools to find the truth whatever it may be. Three examples: Formal logic, statistics, and how to detect deception. All of these are general purpose. Teach people about fallacies, what an appropriate sample size is and make them play Diplomacy. Teach about historic hoaxes and how they were disproven, as well as about conspiracies, ones that were successful and others that were uncovered and failed. Tell the stories of corruption and coups. For technology companies, build un-opinionated features that users love and work so well that people opt-in.
