https://macombnewsnow.com/macomb-news/285152
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Governor is kick starting the 2018 campaign season with a little gift to himself. Bruce Rauner moved $50 million of his own money to his campaign fund. It’s a record setting amount that raises the stakes in what no doubt will be the most expensive state wide race in Illinois history. The Rauner campaign notes to media sources that there is plenty more where that came from – labeling the money as a first installment.)

REASON
— How Trustworthy Does Facebook Think You Are? Should we be concerned about a new system to keep track of real vs. fake news? – Andrea O’Sullivan (DIERSEN: According to my critics/opponents, all news and commentary is fake except for the news and commentary that they put out or bless. They focus on a) stopping me from putting GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails together and sending them out and b) stopping everyone from reading the emails. Should I publish a list of my critics/opponents? Should I sue them?)
https://reason.com/archives/2018/08/28/how-trustworthy-does-facebook-think-you
(FROM THE ARTICLE: One new tool in Facebook’s bag of anti-“misinformation” tricks definitely ticks the “creep box”: Last week, the Washington Post reported that Facebook has been planning to assign a “trustworthiness score” for users on their platform for around a year. Users who are believed to more accurately flag news stories as valid or not will be given a higher score, while users suspected of flagging stories out of revenge or distaste—and thereby throwing off the algorithm—will be given a goose egg. The scale ranges from 0 to 1, and the system is now reportedly coming online. The new system is framed as a necessary augmentation of Facebook’s previous forays into third party-guided media ranking. In addition to partnering with self-deputized “fact-checkers” like PolitiFact and Snopes.com, Facebook created a button for average users to report when a story was “fake news.” The idea was that human feedback, provided by both “experts” and the wisdom of the crowds, would supplement the brittle fallibility of algorithms, leading to a better overall curation of what is being shared on Facebook.)
