Monitor to be improved

Sina Weibo said it will alert Internet users of fake online information and improve its rumor-monitoring system.

Sina Weibo, the largest micro-blogging platform in China, established an online community for Internet users in 2012 to report rumors, the company said. The number of participants is now 20,000.

The committee, which includes anti-rumor and broadcasting professionals, has received about 11,380 reports of fake information and dealt with 11,358 of them, the company said.
