From the Facebook Newsroom:
To reduce the number of these types of posts, News Feed will take into account when many people flag a post as false. News Feed will also take into account when many people choose to delete posts. This means a post with a link to an article that many people have reported as a hoax or chosen to delete will get reduced distribution in News Feed. This update will apply to posts including links, photos, videos and status updates.This change appears to be focused primarily on news sites that pump out hoaxes regularly, so your paranoid uncle will still be able to make ignorant comments on Onion articles at least!
Posts that receive lots of reports will be annotated with a message warning people that many others on Facebook have reported it.

People on Tinder can take themselves too seriously. That's why it's so refreshing, and hilarious, to see Jared Allen, an Aussie guy with a beard and a whole lot of free time, taking the piss out of women's pictures on Tinder. And these pictures are fantastic. For scientific purposes, obviously. But judging whether you want to date someone by a photo and a bio is a little weird. If you think that the world of dating has become messed up in the recent years, we agree with you. That's why it's so good to see someone making fun of it.
Again, we here at Failbook would like to say that we've NEVER done ANYTHING AT ALL like this to make our stories and funny images appear more appealing on social media. Never. Not Once.
