Summary:

Facebook has hired former CNN anchor Campbell Brown to help build better relations with news organisations in the wake of the fake news scandal. Facebook has essentially hired people who have been veterans in the news paper industry such as editors etc, to help them with the fake news scandal as these professionals know how to tackle the situation.

Own view:

I believe this is a temporary solution to the news crisis as it gives journalists who have lost their jobs the opportunity to do their jobs once more. This scandal of fake news has essentially shun light on to the people who have been negatively affected with the news paper industry and this is a chance for them to do something that will contribute to everyone.
