I think it's very important. Again, it's something that you see the public say they want. The problem, of course, is that because this has become so politicized, and because the fight against misinformation has become so politicized, people trust fact-checkers less. They'll say it's partisan.
Some really interesting research has come out about the degree to which the response to fact-checking is different when an issue has become politicized. As I said earlier in my opening statements, several studies have shown that once this becomes about political identity, whether it's misinformation about vaccines or immigrants, etc., they become more resistant to fact-checking. We need to do more research on this exact topic. In fact, this is something we're researching right now to explore what kind of tools we can use when misinformation has become part of political identity.
The other problem that's happening, of course, is that once a bit of misinformation becomes part of a political platform, it becomes an ideological flag. Once that happens—we've seen that happen with, for example, vaccine misinformation, something that we study—it becomes very resistant to change.
There is some suggestion of tools that can be used, such as pointing to what the scientific consensus says, what the body of evidence actually says, and making it clear what that body of evidence is, but there's no doubt that because this has become so political, it has become more challenging.
