## Uses |
|
|
|
This model is meant to classify news articles as real or fake. |
|
|
|
## Bias, Risks, and Limitations |
|
|
|
This model could potentially assume "fake" to be the default |
|
prediction for news stories that contain names that are seen |
|
heavily within fake news articles, ex: a news story about someone |
|
named Hillary may be labeled fake even if it is real because the |
|
name Hillary is heavily grounded within the context of Hillary Clinton. |
