> People were reading news in FB feed and didn't even think it can be fake, now they read and go "outside" for fact checking.
You know this is an interesting topic in and of itself. Are people looking outside FB for news? I would argue that if FB supports your world view that people aren't looking outside of it. Others have had the same theory:
The reality is that the internet provides a platform to even the most marginal ideas, time cubes, flat earths, and lots of rather stupid ideas that have no basis in logic or reason. If these things appeal to you seeing them in print and on video will only bolster ones false reasoning and allow you to further push out other points of view.
I won't agree that internet provides you with such level of information. Internet is a service, it can't figure out your desires, but FB and other social networks really try to do it.
The only reason such for fake news being spreaded everywhere are suggests and recommendations from social networks feed. They multiply junk and fakes.
