This link seems best-suited as a comment on the existing thread, then, rather than a whole new thread.

  It's always a hard question. If you didn't see the story in the first place this thread doesn't do much except feed confirmation bias about the typical veracity of shocking social media stories. But what fraction of the people who did see the story are going to go back and read a random comment on it the next day?

  The existing thread was flagged so no one would be able to see it. And even if they could, it's long since fallen off the front page. The best way to try to undo some of the harm caused by yesterday's false story is to give the follow-up/correction at least equal if not greater prominence.

  No, this link needs to be front centre with the existing thread linked back here - as it has been done. The existing thread is about a claim of racism which is clearly proven to be fake in the message originating this thread.

  You have the option of emailing the site admins (footer Contact link) and asking them to do this. But: They’re more likely to pin a link to this post at the top of the comments of yesterday’s post, based on how they’ve handled other situations like this.
