  • Google kills the fact-checking snippet

    Hidden in a developer blog earlier this month, Google announced that it will stop using the fact-checking snippets in search. For a decade, the fact-checking snippet, under the name of ClaimReview, has been a way to protect users worldwide by showcasing fact-checked information when a Google user searched explicitly for an already debunked claim. It exposed citizens to reliable information first by enhancing search results for fact-check articles. ClaimReview enabled Google to expose fact-checked content to over 120 million European Union citizens in the first half of 2024 (see data by country here). I am the founder and CEO of fact-checking foundation Maldita.es and chair of the European Fact-Checking Standards Network. Google did not inform fact-checkers that the 10-year collaboration was coming to an end, let alone consult with us on the decision to stop using the fact-checks that we provided for free.
