On Thursday, Facebook released a report that effectively admits the social network has been used by both governments and non-state agents as part of a series of orchestrated attempts to manipulate public opinion about political issues, including the U.S. election. Some of this has taken the form of artificially created "fake news" stories, as well as organized efforts to promote these stories and get them circulating as widely as possible.

This is not surprising.  Sad but true fact that many get their "information" from sites such as Facebook.
