Not just fake news but also massively controversial statements taken of out context - factually correct but misleading.
Here is some example with numbers:
Group A: 75% of people said A is true Group B: 25% of people said B is true
91% people in group A said B is false. 87% people in group B said A is false.
100% people across the site agree this is a subject of ongoing controversy - that is factually correct.
Even with the most controversial statement, it is possible to remain factually correct.
Displaying all the data in the UI - busy, messy, cognitive overload.
I think it is possible to have just a single bar and “show more” to indicate the distribution of the votes:
To know if the statement is controversial or not - a useful piece of information
