By: David Cohen | AdWeek

The latest initiative by Facebook to clean up its News Feed is an attempt to warn users of hoaxes.

The social network announced in a Newsroom post by software engineer Erich Owens and research scientist Udi Weinsberg that Facebook recently added an option for users to report stories as false, adding that those stories will not be removed, and Facebook will not review their content, but distribution of those posts in News Feed will be curtailed, and messages will appear atop those posts indicated the fact that users have reported them as false.
