      Is it just me or is this now the lead in to every stupid and pointless post made on Facebook today? I mean seriously, it's only been a few months and already I am conditioned to immediately seeing anything worded in the "someone did something mundane that sounds kinda bad" and "what happened next will...." combination and I automatically know that whatever the link is is to something inane and annoying and it immediately makes me hate anyone who is posting that crap.

      What is wrong with people?!?

        Interesting that you should bring this up:

        The changes pertain to “misleading” news stories that have been flagged as such, like the Santa Clause story or an article such as “Man sees dinosaur on hike in Utah,” and also to scams like, “Click here to win a lifetime supply of coffee.”
        From http://www.itworld.com/article/2872835/facebook-to-limit-content-flagged-as-false-in-news-feeds.html

        The goal of News Feed is to catch up with your friends and find the things that matter to you. We’re always looking to people on Facebook to tell us how we can improve this experience. We’ve heard from people that they want to see fewer stories that are hoaxes, or misleading news. Today’s update to News Feed reduces the distribution of posts that people have reported as hoaxes and adds an annotation to posts that have received many of these types of reports to warn others on Facebook. We are not removing stories people report as false and we are not reviewing content and making a determination on its accuracy.

          Now they just need to crack down on the lingerie pic sites being set up by the Department of Justice.
