Government intervention on false news in the U.S. 2018-2023

Published by

A 2023 survey held in the United States found that 55 percent of adults believed the U.S. government should take steps to restrict false information online, even if this meant limiting freedom of information. Attitudes to bodies and organizations outside the news industry helping to stem the spread of false information have changed since 2018, with a higher share of Americans responding to the 2023 survey willing to see tech companies and governments intervene than the share who said the same in previous years.
