Abstract
With the dissemination of journalism on digital platforms and the reconfiguration of
communications promoted by social networks, questions amplify
regarding the visibility conditions imposed by the platforms and the new
censorship possibilities. In this article, we intend to discuss how possibilities of
fighting fake news and encouraging quality journalism can be thought of in this
context of new challenges to freedom of expression, which include technological mediation,
algorithmic biases and the use of user data.
Keywords: algorithm; censorship; fake news; journalism; social networks
