As per the recent buzz, Twitter is now experimenting newer ways to combat fake news and misinformation, which comes from people like politicians and public figures.

It further said that they are exploring different ways to address the misinformation along with offering more context for tweets seen over Twitter claimed the spokesperson and then offer more context for tweets on the Microblogging site. 

The demo with its bright red and orange badges as seen on the tweets talks about the signal that indicates harmfully misleading that remains nearly the same size when tweet is seen on its own and mostly showcased directly with the tweet that carries the lethal misinformation.  The examples of fake news and misinformation can be seen remaining in the form of false tweets that comes like a whistleblowers by House Minority Leader Keving McCarthy, R Calif who came with the false or fake news tweet.
