Facebook will flag false posts in your feed to tackle fake news
I don't think it's a good idea, because there is so much fake science already, and anyone attempting to correct fake science will be flagged. For example the Moon landings could be fake, so identifying the errors in the film material will be flagged as false news when that just helps to hide the real false news.
This will act like a cover up for political wrong doings. Even I am banned from most science sites due to a similar clipping of the wings.
