Sky News host Danica De Giorgio has welcomed Mark Zuckerberg scrapping Meta's fact checkers in America, stating the decision as a win for free speech and common sense.

The article discusses a decision by Meta, the parent company of Facebook, to remove fact-checking services from its platform, which has been welcomed by Sky News Australia host Rowan Dean as a victory for free speech and common sense.
