That's why you don't block; you flag. Let people make their own choices, but informed. Allow users to flag a link or post with tags such as Satire, Misleading, Controversial, Editorialized, Biased, Debunked, etc. Everyone else can still view the links and posts, but with some small indication of its trustworthiness. Though I feel like some tags, such as Debunked, should perhaps require a supporting link attached to a flag.

Tagging by users can easily be gamed but it would be a useful signal for an algorithm.

The entire problem is that most people don't know or realize when articles qualify for any of these criteria.

Are the ads also getting a "biased"-tag? It also stifles media competency. I think a better approach would be to give a daily or weekly summary of questionable Articles that where opened by the user.

What about 'Deplorables'? Can we tag news stories as that?
