Twitter expands crowdsourced fact checking pilot, Birdwatch

<p>Birdwatch, Twitter&#39;s crowd-sourced fact-checking project that began as a little-publicized trial experiment more than a year ago, is expanding. Folks can use the application to report and note misleading tweets. This is distinct from its news verification agreements with Reuters and The Associated Press. A small number of US Twitter users will begin to see these Birdwatch notices on some tweets starting Thursday and will be able to rate how helpful they are or aren&#39;t.</p>
