    AFP expands fact-checking contract with Facebook

    Agence France-Presse (AFP) has extended its fact-checking contract with Facebook to Canada, Indonesia, and the Philippines.

    AFP will produce fact-checking articles that will be made available for free via blogs.

    The blogs, in English, Spanish and Portuguese are based on the current French-language Factuel, a site dedicated to verifying and debunking false information spread online.

    The collaboration between Facebook and AFP is an expansion of a contract signed in 2017 between the social media platform and five French news organisations.
