On one hand this is a (potentially) great initiative, but on the other it's a bit suspect/sketchy. IF you believe that you're immune to fake news, THEN you're a prime candidate for being conditioned by it.
Critical thinking, the ability to perform actual research (not seeking only sources which agree with your bias), and skepticism go a long way in combating "Fake News", but there's no way that the US Education system is ready to effectively address it when they can't provide basic financial literacy through Grade School.
